Workshop Description:
This workshop will cover the basic principles of tree preservation for numerous professions involved in property development and construction projects (e.g. tree care workers, engineers, architects, planners, real estate developers, and sitework construction trades). A multi-disciplinary approach is emphasized, because careful coordination throughout all phases of construction helps to ensure the successful preservation of existing trees. Consulting arborist Ryan Gilpin and municipal urban forester Jennifer Killian will share the process laid out in the newest edition of "Managing Trees During Site Development and Construction Best Management Practices". They will review real-world project examples, and participants will practice being consulting arborists and municipal plan reviews.
Instructors:
Ryan Gilpin
 is the principal consultant at Nidus Consulting in Portland. He specializes in tree and construction projects, completing hundreds of projects and training several consulting arborists along the way. He is chair of the Tree Care for Birds Committee. He is co-author of two Best Management Practices: "WCISA’s Tree Care for Birds" and "ISA’s Managing Trees During Construction BMPs".
Jennifer Killian
 (she/her) is Assistant Professor of Practice in Urban Forestry at Oregon State University. In her home state of Wisconsin, Jennifer’s interest in municipal forestry was sparked while working for the state Department of Agriculture’s Emerald Ash Borer team, which discovered the beetle for the first time in 2008. She is an ISA Certified Arborist, Qualified Tree Risk Assessor and certified in Wildfire Risk Reduction. Outside of work, Jennifer enjoys being a semi-professional cake baker, triathlete, heart attack survivor, and her favorite role, new mom.
