to remove undergrowth so as to provide access to chainsaw operators


Explanation:
Please note that, with a slight modification, namely adding the verb "remove", the fragment will make sense by itself. Now, the word "motosserrista" is extremely specific (the word "motosserra" was created to translate chainsaw). Also the relatively new word "facilitate" tends to be restricted, in English, to the context of human relations (to facilitate a discussion, a meeting, etc.)
