In December of 2016, 'The Forest Protection Act' was amended partly in The National Assembly and the socalled 'Tree Doctor Act' was promulgated. Tree Doctor Act will be enforced from June 28, 2018. Under the new Act, none other than 'Tree Hospital' can do disease and pest management work for trees in public living space. The only exclusive qualification for tree hospital is a 'Tree Doctor', the government registered license which is newly established by the Act. To become a tree doctor, he/she must complete the tree doctor training courses in the designated 'Tree Doctor Academy' and pass the qualification test. Currently, Korea Forest Service is drafting the enforcement ordinances and regulations for the implement of Tree Doctor Act. When taking into consideration that the most fundamental and important discipline of the plant and tree health care is the plant pathology, and that the tree health care is a promising business for young plant pathology people, Korean Society of Plant Pathology is ought to be actively involved in the preparation of the enforcement ordinances and regulations, and help the early establishment of the new tree health care system in living spaces of Korea.

국문 초록 (Abstract)

2016년 12월에 산림보호법 중 일부가 개정되어 이른바 '나무의사법'이 공포되었으며, 이 법은 2018년 6월 28일부터 시행될 예정이다. 새로운 법안에서는 나무의사 자격 소지자에 한하여 나무병원을 개업할 수 있고, 나무병원만이 생활권 공공분야의 수목병해충 관리를 할 수 있도록 규정하고 있으며, 그에 따라 '나무의사'라는 국가공인자격이 신설되었다. 나무의사가 되기 위해서는 지정된 양성과정을 이수하고 시험을 통과하여야 한다. 현재 산림청에서는 이 법의 시행을 위하여 구체적 시행방안을 포함하는 시행령과 시행규칙 등을 만들고 있다. 수목진료 및 건강관리에서 가장 핵심적인 부분이 식물병리학이라는 사실을 감안할 때, 그리고 식물병리학을 공부하는 학생들의 사회진출을 위하여 식물병리학회는 새로운 수목진료체계가 정착될 수 있도록 나무의사 양성기관의 교육과정 개발 및 나무의사 선발시험계획 수립 등에 적극적으로 관여하여야 할 것으로 생각한다.
