The ASLA Board of Trustees approved six policies related to licensure—Professional Licensure, Definition of Practice, Qualifications for Licensure, Reciprocity, Enforcement, and Post-Nominal Letters. They also approved updates to the policy on Climate Change and Resilience and a brand new policy on Biodiversity.
This rule revised the January 2023 rule text that is invalid post-Sackett, including references to the significant nexus standard, wetlands, and streams, as well as revised the definition of adjacent to mean “having a continuous surface connection.”
The new U.S. Access Board guidelines cover the minimum scoping and technical requirements for various spaces and elements in the public right-of-way. It is imperative that landscape architects are versed in these new guidelines.
ASLA members will now have exclusive access to a tailored list of federal funding opportunities.
ASLA secured this designation on behalf of its members. ASLA developed and submitted a technical paper, Landscape Architecture is a STEM Discipline, as part of the official application.
