Alternative LPE paths

posted by  SIG - Sustainability Main Account  on 

Are there any exceptions to the LPE for this credit? Specifically, could a Certified Arborist with ISA (International Society of Arboriculture) www.isa-arbor.com-be used in place of a RLA?

Would Land/Dirt that is Just Left Alone Be Counted?
