Federal Infrastructure
Risk Reduction.

The Arborist is a federal prime contractor delivering infrastructure risk reduction across utility corridors, public spaces, and federally managed land — with an ISA Board Certified Master Arborist (BCMA) on staff, a credential held by fewer than 1,300 professionals globally.

Federal agencies call us when the consequence of failure is unacceptable: trees over occupied historic structures, crane operations above active highways, mitigation on 70° ravine slopes, precision extraction adjacent to unexcavated Civil War earthworks.

Across 9 federal contracts and 3 agencies, we have maintained zero damage incidents — without closing a single federal site.
