Description

The course is delivered in a training room environment by LANTRA qualified instructors, with some practical exercises included.

  • State the legal and safety implications of hazardous trees
  • Maintain your own health and safety while carrying out the survey and inspection
  • Recognise hazardous trees
  • Determine level of risk
  • Decide on an appropriate course of action
  • Collect and maintain adequate information
  • Recognise your own limitations

Supporting Information:

  • Tree inspection should be carried out by an experienced and qualified arborist. The inspection process involves all aspects of the tree from roots up to branch tips.
  • Additionally, any target hazard needs to be identified and considered, for example it may be that the tree is located within a woodland area and that certain defects that would be unacceptable on a road side tree are acceptable on a woodland tree.
  • To reduce the possibilities of such situations it is recommended that tree owners obtain an annual condition survey of their trees by a qualified arborist.
