204 MARYLAND MANUAL Council of State Boards of Engineering Examiners, which aids in the reciprocal licensing of engineers and seeks to promote uniform stand- ards of licensing in all States. Through the cooperation of the local chapters of the engineering fraternities, the Board seeks to secure voluntary compliance with the law and the maintenance of the ethical standards of the profession. However, the Board has specific powers of enforcement. These include the investigation of charges as well as the hearing of complaints of violations of the registration law, the power to subpoena witnesses and the submission of documents or other pertinent data, and the power to apply for relief by injunction to enforce the provisions of the law or to restrain any violation of it (Code 1957, 1969 Repl. Vol., 1972 Supp., Art. 75% ). Appropriations 1973 1974 Special Funds ................ $66,610 $63,692 Staff: 5. MARYLAND STATE BOARD OF PUBLIC ACCOUNTANCY Chairman: Benjamin L. King, 1975 Daniel E.

Cardegna, 1974 One South Calvert Street, Baltimore 21202 Telephone: 383-2090 This Board was first established by Chapter 719, Acts of 1900. Con- sisting of five members, the Board is appointed by the Governor, with the advice of the Secretary of Licensing and Regulation. Three mem- bers must be certified public accountants, currently enrolled to prac- tice as such. One member must be a full-time college professor in the field of accounting at an accredited institution and hold a Maryland certificate. One member must be a practicing attorney at law. Each member serves a three-year term. The Board examines applicants for certificates as certified public accountants, passes on applications by certified public accountants of other states for reciprocal certificates, and enrolls certified public accountants and registered public accountants and registered partner- ships to practice public accountancy in Maryland. Examinations are held in May and November of each year. Certifi- cates are issued by the Board to those persons who pass the examina- tions, or whose applications for reciprocal certificates are approved. The Board may for specified causes revoke or suspend any such cer- tificate, registration or enrollment, after written notice to the holder and reasonable opportunity for a hearing. The 1970 General Assembly updated the laws which provided for the minimum educational require- ments to not less than a baccalaureate degree with a major in ac- counting to become effective in July 1974. The new law also gave the Board jurisdiction over professional ethics (Code 1957, 1969 Repl. Vol., Art. 75A, sees. 1-23A).
