TCI Magazine Audio Edition ·

2025/04/02

BY JIM KASPER How did your tree-work journey begin? Did you grow up in the midst of arboriculture, a member of a family team? Did you, like me, stumble upon men swinging – precariously! Wildly!

Pruning Solutions for Urban-Compatible Trees

TCI Magazine Audio Edition ·

2025/04/01

BY LINDSEY PURCELL, BCMA Conditions of concern may be defined as tree issues that the client and arborist perceive as unacceptable. In my experience, they usually fall into one or more of three categories. Typically, it is about structure, clearance and appearance. (Photo 1) Our task, as arborists, is providing solutions to these issues. Rember to subscribe to TCI Magazine by visiting tcimag.tcia.org.

Never Waste a Crisis: Lessons Learned From a Serious...

TCI Magazine Audio Edition ·

2025/04/01

BY CRAIG BACHMANN, BCMA, CTSP, TRAQ The goal of “zero incidents” is an impossible standard. As a profession, we have promoted this concept, but it is simply not realistic. While safety is always a priority, arboriculture is performed in a high-hazard environment, and every day requires thousands of decisions with incomplete information.

Pretty Simple – PPE Works!

2025/04/01

BY DON STARUK We asked about a dozen arborists, all of whom have been contributors to TCI Magazine at one time or another, if they had an example of a time when personal protective equipment (PPE) made or could have made a difference on the job. Could they briefly recount a time when PPE saved the day? Or when the lack of it cost or nearly cost someone an injury, or worse? Rember to subscribe to TCI Magazine by visiting tcimag.tcia.org.
