A Property Map of Assessable Vegetation (PMAV) is a certified, property-specific map that replaces the default state vegetation map for that lot. Landholders use PMAVs to correct mapping or confirm Category X areas (generally not regulated under the state vegetation framework — other laws may still apply). You can check if a PMAV exists and apply to create or amend one if needed. Whether you need it depends on your project’s certainty needs. The qualified arborists at ECTW will be able to assess your land and confirm if one is necessary, and help you get one.
