North Carolina Board of Registration for Foresters
The North Carolina Board of Registration for Foresters
was established with the passage of G.S. 89B. This Chapter requires that anyone
who uses the designation ‘forester’, ‘registered forester’,
or any other descriptive terms that include the words ‘forester’ or
‘registered forester’ and that directly conveys that the person is a
forester must be registered with the Board. This benefits and protects the public
by improving the standards for the practice of professional forestry in North Carolina.
