Pacific Southwest Region Saw Program
The Pacific Southwest Region Saw Program defines the use of chainsaws and crosscuts during project and fire activities. The program is provided oversight by the R5 Chainsaw and Crosscut working group.
The Working Group, which meets once a year, is made-up of Regional and Unit coordinators and C-certifiers.
