Section 380-X-1-.01 - Description Of Board's Operations

The State Board of Registration for Foresters consists of five registered foresters selected by the Governor of Alabama to administer Code of Ala. 1975, § 34-12-1, etseq. Each member must meet the qualifications of § 34-12-31, and each member serves a term of five years. The principal function of the Board is the examination and licensing of registered foresters, as well as granting reciprocity to qualified individuals. The Board provides for the administration of examinations of applicants and determines whether applicants satisfy the criteria of § 34-12-4 for becoming registered foresters. It also administers the renewal, revocation, reissuance, or replacement of licenses of previously registered foresters and keeps a roster of registered foresters. In addition, the Board has authority to prefer charges or seek injunctive relief against those who practice forestry without a license or those who unlawfully represent themselves to be registered foresters. The office manager is empowered to act on behalf of the Board and its officers as authorized by these rules and by action of the Board. The Board meets quarterly in Montgomery on the Wednesday following the fourth Tuesday in January, April, July, and October. Special meetings may be held upon call by the chairman with each member of the Board receiving written notice at least forty-eight hours in advance. Meetings are usually held at the Alabama Forestry Commission in Montgomery.
