WILLIAM DONALD SCHAEFER, Governor
Ch. 3
(3) AS AN OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE OF A CORPORATION,
SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS PROVIDED UNDER § 14-302 OF THIS TITLE.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former Art. 75 1/2, §
17A.
Former Art. 75 1/2, § 17A was enacted under Ch. 584,
Acts of 1974. At that time, the former
cross-reference to "subsections (c), (d) and (e) of §
19 of this article" was proper. However, Ch. 763,
Acts of 1977, amended former § 19 and redesignated
subsections (c), (d), and (e) as items (3), (4), and
(5), respectively. Therefore, in the revision of this
section, the Business Occupations Article Review
Committee interpreted the former cross-reference as
a reference to former Art. 75 1/2, § 19(3), (4), and
(5).
Defined terms: "License" § 14-101
"Practice engineering" § 14-101
"Professional engineer" § 14-101
14-507. PRACTICING WHILE NOT QUALIFIED.
AN INDIVIDUAL WHO IS AUTHORIZED TO PRACTICE ENGINEERING MAY
NOT PRACTICE OR OFFER TO PRACTICE ENGINEERING IN THOSE AREAS OF
ENGINEERING IN WHICH THE INDIVIDUAL IS NOT COMPETENT TO PRACTICE.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former Art. 75 1/2, §
18(a)(7).
The Business Occupations Article Review Committee
notes, for consideration by the General Assembly, that
the meaning of former Art. 75 1/2, § 18(a)(7) is
unclear. The Committee has interpreted the former
prohibition against practicing "when not qualified" to
refer to an individual who, while authorized to
practice engineering, undertakes a project that is
outside the individual's area of professional
competence. The Office of the Attorney General
concurs with this interpretation. The Business
Occupations Article Review Committee suggests that the
General Assembly may wish to further clarify the
intent of this section.
Defined term: "Practice engineering" § 14-101
14-508. PENALTIES.
