AN INDIVIDUAL WHO IS LICENSED TO PRACTICE FORESTRY IN
ANOTHER STATE OR COUNTRY MAY PRACTICE FORESTRY IN THIS STATE
WITHOUT A LICENSE IF:

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former Art. 56, § 316.

In the introductory language of this section, the
power to "practice forestry ... without a license" is
substituted for the former power to "use the title of
registered professional forester", to clarify that the
intent of the former power was to authorize the
practice of forestry and not merely to allow an
individual to make representations of that authority.

The Business Occupations Article Review Committee
notes, for consideration by the General Assembly, that
item (3)(ii) of this section is vague. The General
Assembly may wish to clarify what is meant by the word
"recently".

Defined terms: "Board" § 7-101
"License" § 7-101 "Practice forestry"
"State" § 1-101
