The purpose of the Alberta Scaling Permitting Program is primarily to provide the ground rules under which the training and permitting of timber scalers shall occur in Alberta. Timber scaling is conducted for the purpose of providing harvest information to the department of Agriculture and Forestry, and must be done by a person holding a valid scaler's permit. In addition, a valid scaler's permit is also required for any person conducting check scaling on behalf of Agriculture and Forestry. This document defines the requirements for course instructors, course content and duration, obtaining and retaining a scalers permit, and examination procedures.
