REVISOR'S NOTE: Subsection (a)(1) of this section is new
language derived without substantive change from
former Art. 56, § 343(a)(1) and rephrased in standard
language to state affirmatively that an individual
must be licensed to practice land surveying in the
State. See also § 15-601 of this title.

Subsection (a)(2) of this section is standard language
added to state a fundamental prerequisite implicit
throughout former Art. 56, §§ 330 through 344A, as
those sections related to practicing property line
surveying. See also § 15-601 of this title.

Subsection (b)(1) of this section is new language
derived without substantive change from former Art.
56, § 344(3).
