What policies guide ATC’s sawyer training program?
The Memorandum of Understanding first signed by the U.S. Forest Service, National Park Service, and ATC in 2003 and renewed in 2008 is the guiding document. Also in 2003, ATC’s Board of Managers passed the Chain-saw and Crosscut Saw Training and Certification Policy to endorse those federal agencies’ safety programs to protect volunteers and employees working on the Appalachian Trail.
