TPAA Membership - Fee Structure

The following fee structure has been determined by National Council after due consideration of the proposed level of activity of the Association to achieve its Mission and Objectives. Wide consultation has been held with representatives of all sectors of the wood preservation industry and general approval for the fee structure has been foreshadowed.
