Professional engineer applicants shall use the form entitled "Professional Engineer Engagement Record and Reference Form (PE09)(2017)," hereby incorporated by reference. Professional land surveyor applicants shall use the form entitled "Professional Land Surveyor Engagement Record and Reference Form (LS09)(2017)," hereby incorporated by reference. Professional land surveyor applicants may also use the form entitled "Log Book for Professional Land Surveyor Applicants (LB09)(2017)," hereby incorporated by reference, as an optional supplement to the "Professional Land Surveyor Engagement Record and Reference Form (LS09)(2017)."(b) The applicant for licensure as a professional engineer or a professional land surveyor shall furnish not less than the number of references required hereafter: (1) An applicant for a license as a professional land surveyor or as a professional engineer shall refer to not less than four persons who are authorized to practice in the discipline for which the applicant is applying and who have personal knowledge of the applicant's qualifying experience, none of whom is a relative either by birth or marriage.(2) Nothing herein contained shall be construed to limit authority of the Board to seek such other information pertinent to the education and experience of the applicant as may be required to verify his or her qualifications. The Board may waive the requirement that only registered or licensed individuals give references for the applicants in disciplines other than civil engineering or land surveying when the applicants have no association with registered or licensed individuals in their work environment.Cal.
