Learn How to Better Assess Tree Risk with this BMP

ISA offers a variety of educational material and products to help arborists expand their professional knowledge and experience. Every month, we will feature a product or group of products. In the month of May, ISA is featuring the Best Management Practices (BMP) – Tree Risk Assessment written by E. Thomas Smiley, Nelda Matheny, and Sharon Lilly.

Trees are an important part of the world; however, trees also have liabilities. By understanding and addressing the risks associated with trees, arborists can help make the community safer and prolong the lives of trees.

The BMP – Tree Risk Assessment serves as a guide for arborists to assess tree risk as accurately and consistently as possible, to evaluate risk, and to recommend measures that achieve an acceptable level of risk.

The BMP – Tree Risk Assessment is also available in digital format. Purchase your copy today!
