SAF Bylaws IIC, defines position statements as "a carefully prepared expression on a forestry issue which presents the SAF view on an issue"..[it] "may be an advocacy position, an informational position, or a position promoting resolution through facilitating discussion of the issue." All unit regular position statements now have a five year lifespan according to the new By-laws. Emergency position statements remain for one year before expiring.
