§ 37.48. References.

 As part of the application process, an applicant applying under §  37.47(1)(iii) and (2) (relating to eligibility for certification or licensure, or both) shall give the names and addresses of five references, three of whom shall be licensed professional land surveyors in this Commonwealth or another state or territory of the United States. Individuals used as references shall be qualified to evaluate the applicant’s training and experience and know the applicant personally, but may not be related to the applicant. Individuals used as references shall include professional land surveyors or professional engineers under whose direct supervision the applicant has worked. The Board will not review an application until five acceptable references have been received. If, in the opinion of the Board, references reflect adversely on the applicant’s character or qualifications, the Board may withhold processing the application until an investigation into the applicant’s character or qualifications, or both, is completed. Based upon the results of an investigation, additional references may be required by the Board.

   The provisions of this §  37.48 adopted January 21, 1994, effective January 22, 1994, 24 Pa.B. 518.
