Requires professional engineers, land surveyors and professional geologists to report structural faults within forty-eight hours
This bill requires licensed professional engineers, land surveyors, and geologists to report any structural defects or issues they discover in buildings or other structures to local government authorities within 48 hours. It applies directly to these licensed professionals who identify problems during their work, such as cracks, foundation shifts, or safety hazards. The key provision mandates immediate reporting to the relevant city, town, or county office where the structure is located. This creates a formal timeline for addressing potential safety concerns before they worsen.
