Demystifying AS 4970 Since the adoption of the standard, there appears to be a lot of misunderstanding about its purpose and as a result is regularly misused as a set of specifications. In addition, it is misused to argue for or against development or for the retention or removal of a tree. Rather than applying our knowledge of tree roots and tree physiology to make educated decisions about trees on development sites, too often expressions like "you can't come closer than a 10% encroachment" are used by municipal and consulting arborist alike. Cost $385 + GST (Coffee, morning/afternoon tea and lunch provided)
