In this episode we interview Professor Richard Hauer from the College of Natural Resources at The University of Wisconsin at Stevens Point (UWSP). An academic institution known by many of our listeners, UWSP continues to be a source of education and research to the UVM industry.
During this thoughtful discussion, Professor Hauer discusses his work on a recent report he published about Utility Vegetation Management in North America. The report was based on a 2019 utility forestry census of UVM activities and operations. Professor Hauer also details UWSP courses focused on UVM including the Vegetation Management Certificate.
