HB 1228 Pennsylvania House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

An Act amending the act of May 23, 1945 (P.L.913, No.367), known as the Engineer, Land Surveyor and Geologist Registration Law, further providing for State registration board for professional engineers, land surveyors and geologists.

HB 1228 amends Pennsylvania's Engineer, Land Surveyor and Geologist Registration Law to update the composition of the State Registration Board that oversees professional licensing. The bill specifies that the board must include five licensed engineers (with no more than two representing any single engineering discipline), two licensed land surveyors, and two licensed geologists, all meeting minimum experience and residency requirements. It also requires three public members appointed by the Governor to serve alongside these professionals. This change affects how board members are selected but does not alter the licensing standards for engineers, surveyors, or geologists.
