The following is from an FAA chart and lists the obstacles for a departure from RW36, i.e in the RW18 undershoot.

Rwy 36: Fence, tree, and vehicles on road beginning 130’ from DER, left and right of centerline up to 28’ AGL/662’ MSL. Tree and pole beginning 467’ from DER, 470’ right o fcenterline, up to 63’ AGL/726’ MSL. Trees beginning 637’ from DER, 420’ left of centerline, up to 13’ AGL/696’ MSL. Pole and tree beginning 1353’ from DER, 669 left of centerline, up to 37’ AGL/739’ MSL. Trees, poles, and fence beginning 1279 from DER, 492’ right of centerline, up to 19’ AGL/713’ MSL. Terrain beginning 43 feet from DER, left and right of centerline, up to 794’ MSL

DER=Departure end of runway.
On an FAA website I found an old version of the GPS approach and the descent angle was originally 3.04 degrees. Chart is dated July 2008.
