Live from 2026 Trees & Utilities: Featuring Guest Dennis Fallon of the UAA
At the 2026 Trees & Utilities Conference this September in Portland, Oregon, more than 1,200 arborists, foresters, and utility vegetation managers gathered to share technologies, best practices, and strategies—especially around wildfire risk mitigation and a rapidly growing utility vegetation management (UVM) workload.
The event, presented by the Utility Arborist Association (UAA) and the Arbor Day Foundation, featured 300+ exhibitors, a new integrated Women in Vegetation Management program, student mentorships and announcements about industry education partnerships and next year’s conference in Cincinnati.
Listen to this episode, which features Dennis Fallon, executive director of the Utility Arborist Association (UAA), to learn more about this year's event.
Also stay tuned to the T&D World website for a photo gallery from the event and to the Line Life Podcast for more UVM-related episodes. You can also submit an abstract for the 2027 T&D World Vegetation Management Supplement, published each June in partnership with the UAA.
