Independently Managed Group (IMG) Organizations may seek ATFS Certification through the IMG Certification option. Group certification allows many individual forest owners to band together under one umbrella organization.
IMG Organizations interested in ATFS Certification should review the IMG requirements in the Standard Operating Procedures for Group Programs. This document defines the requirements for the IMG, Group Manager, and Group Members. Please see our Documents page for a copy of all related materials.
Please contact ATFS staff to request copies of IMG public audit summaries. Send requests by email to slloyd@forestfoundation.org.
