H.476 is a bill introduced by Rep. O'Brien of Tunbridge that aims to establish a Mechanized Logging and Trucking Training Program in Vermont. This program will be developed by the Agency of Commerce and Community Development in collaboration with the Department of Forests, Parks and Recreation and the Vermont State Colleges. The primary goal of the program is to train Vermonters in the operation and maintenance of mechanized logging equipment, while also providing participants the opportunity to obtain a commercial driver's license.

To fund the Training Program, the bill mandates the Agency of Commerce and Community Development to seek financial support from the U.S. Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration. Once funding is secured, the program will be implemented at one or more Vermont State Colleges, with participation being free or offered at a reduced tuition rate based on the availability of federal funds.
