Current Bill Summary

- Prepared by Senate Research -


HB 557 - Current law requires an applicant for land surveyor-in-training to provide at three letters of reference, one of which must be from a professional land surveyor who has personal knowledge of the applicant's land surveying education or experience. Additionally, an applicant for licensure as a professional land surveyor must provide at least three letters of reference, all of which must be from professional land surveyors with personal knowledge of the experience of the applicant's land surveying education or experience.

This act repeals any requirement for letters of reference in order to apply for enrollment as a land surveyor-in-training or to apply for licensure as a professional land surveyor.

This act is identical to provisions contained in HCS/SB 125 (2017), SCS/HB 815 (2017), and to HB 2461 (2016).
