WebDET / WinDET Requirements

Step 3

a. Complete PIN form and fax or email to the national Forest Stewardship Program Manager (see form for instructions)
b. Complete NDA and ROB forms and mail with original signatures to the National Administrator (see forms for mailing address)
c. Complete Conditional Release of WinDET Form – this form will be faxed to the State Administrator upon receipt of the above forms (if a state is using only WebDET, this form is not required)

New users fulfilling roles other than State Administrator complete the following forms for processing:

WebDET

Complete WebDET One time use PIN (OTP) form - state users fax or email to your State Administrator and federal users fax to the national Forest Stewardship Program Manager (see form for instructions).
