The Grand Junction Forestry Board acts as a reviewing body
for the purpose of determining professional qualifications
and licensing of anyone engaged in the business of tree care
and maintenance. The Grand Junction Forestry Division administers
licenses and assists licensees through the process. To obtain
a license an Arborist must present proof of adequate insurance,
pay a fee of $50.00, and successfully demonstrate knowledge
and application of pruning skills through written and practical
examinations. A license is required to perform tree maintenance,
class "A”, Spraying, class "B" and class
"C" for those engaged in the landscape lawn care
or nursery business, or an A, B, C license.
