2018 Required Sample Available in ATFS Database
2018 Required Sample Available in ATFS Database
The annual required and priority pioneer sample is now available for viewing in the database. For chairs and administrators, the report can be found under tree farm reports. The deadline for submission and approval of these inspections is December 9, 2018.
On-the-ground inspections with an ATFS Inspector provide the greatest value to Tree Farmers enrolled in ATFS. To help ensure the credibility of ATFS, every year we ask state programs to complete a number of “required sample” inspections. Additionally, since 2016, a small sample of pioneer properties are randomly selected for inspection for states with a pioneer population.
