Title 43, Chapter 15, Section 22
( 43-15-22)
(a) Every engineer and land surveyor registered under this chapter
shall, upon receipt of a certificate of registration, obtain a seal
of the design authorized by the board, bearing the registrant's
name, certificate number, and the legend "Registered Professional
Engineer," or "Registered Land Surveyor," in accordance with the
certificate of registration. (b) Plans, specifications, plats, and reports issued by a registrant
shall be stamped or sealed and countersigned by the registrant; but
it shall be unlawful for the registrant or any other person to stamp
or seal any document with such seal after the certificate of the
registrant named thereon has expired, or has been revoked, or during
the period of any suspension imposed by the board. No plans,
specifications, plats, or reports shall be stamped with the seal of
a registrant unless such registrant has personally performed the
engineering or land surveying work involved or, when the registrant
has not personally performed the engineering or land surveying work
reflected in any plan, specification, plat, or report, such
registrant has affixed his or her seal thereto only if such document
has been prepared by an employee or employees under the registrant's
direct supervisory control on a daily basis and after the registrant
has thoroughly reviewed the work embodied in such document and has
satisfied himself or herself completely that such work is adequate. (c) No registrant shall affix his seal to any plan, specification,
plat, or report unless he has assumed the responsibility for the
accuracy and adequacy of the work involved. (d) Any registrant who has affixed his or her seal to any plan,
specification, plat, or report prepared by another person not under
the registrant's direct supervisory control on a daily basis, and
without having thoroughly reviewed such work, shall be deemed to
have committed a fraudulent act of misconduct in the practice of
professional engineering or land surveying. |
