The State Board for Professional Land Sur-
veyors originated in 1977 as the State Board of
Registration for Professional Land Surveyors
(Chapter 763, Acts of 1977). The Board received
its present name in 1989 (Chapter 3, Acts of 1989).
All persons seeking to practice surveying in
Maryland must submit their qualifications to the
Board or pass its examination before receiving a
certificate of registration to practice. Through the
cooperation of local chapters of the surveying
fraternities, the Board seeks to secure voluntary
compliance with the law and maintain the ethical
standards of the profession. The Board also enforces
the provisions of the registration law and restrains
any violations of it. The Board can investigate char-
ges, as well as hear complaints of violations, sub-
poena witnesses and documents or other pertinent
data, and apply for relief by injunction.
The Board is comprised of six members ap-
pointed to five-year terms by the Governor with the
advice of the Secretary of Licensing and Regulation.
Two members are selected from the public at large,
three are professional land surveyors, and one is a
property line surveyor. The professional land sur-
veyors and property line surveyor may be chosen
from nominees recommended by the Maryland
Society of Surveyors.
The Board is a member of the Maryland Society
of Professional Land Surveyors, which aids in the
reciprocal licensing of surveyors and seeks to
promote uniform standards of licensing in all states.
Authorization for the Board continues until July 1,
1993 (Code Business Occupations and Professions
Article, sees. 15-101 through 15-702).
