1215 - BOARD FOR PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERS, LAND SURVEYORS, AND GEOLOGISTS

The Board for Professional Engineers, Land Surveyors, and Geologists is mandated to protect the public by regulating the practices of professional engineering, land surveying, geology, and geophysics. The Board ensures that these professions are properly educated and have the technical expertise to be licensed. It examines, licenses, and registers these individuals and enforces the Professional Engineers, Professional Land Surveyors, and Geologists and Geophysicists Act.

Effective July, 2016, the Board's two funds, the Professional Engineer's and Land Surveyor's Fund, and the Geology and Geophysics Account, have been combined into the Professional Engineer's, Land Surveyor's, and Geologist's Fund pursuant to Chapter 428, Statutes of 2015 (AB 177, Bonilla).
