542B.3  Engineering and land surveying examining board created.

An engineering and land surveying examining board is created within the professional licensing and regulation division of the department of commerce. The board consists of four members who are licensed professional engineers, one member who is a licensed land surveyor or a professional engineer who is also a licensed land surveyor, and two members who are not licensed professional engineers or land surveyors and who shall represent the general public. Members shall be appointed by the governor subject to confirmation by the senate. A licensed member shall be actively engaged in the practice of engineering or land surveying and shall have been so engaged for five years preceding the appointment, the last two of which shall have been in Iowa. Insofar as practicable, licensed engineer members of the board shall be from different branches of the profession of engineering. Professional associations or societies composed of licensed engineers or licensed land surveyors may recommend the names of potential board members whose profession is representative of that association or society to the governor. However, the governor is not bound by the recommendations. A board member shall not be required to be a member of any professional association or society composed of professional engineers or land surveyors.
