Review Strategic Plan Objectives. Mr. Young stated that Goal 3 Objective B will no longer be necessary effective July 1, 2010.

Moved by Mr. Milligan, seconded by Mr. Howe to approve changes to Strategic Plan by eliminating Goal 3 Objective B. Motion passed unanimously. 3.

A subcommittee of Mr. Young and Mr. Bennion will report progress on reviewing state job descriptions in terms of engineering without licensure requirements.

Mr. Young reviewed the DHR descriptions for engineering and found no discrepancies. Geologist and Geologist Engineering Assistant do not require licensing as an engineer, but require a geologist background. The Board discussed the overlap or “gray areas” of engineering and geology and work being done in the private sector versus the public sector. There are some Public Television Broadcast Engineer descriptions that do not really include professional engineering but rather maintenance and operations. Moved by Mr. Milligan, seconded by Mr. Bennion to authorize the Chair to sign a letter to Mr. Falk stating that the Board reviewed the DHR position descriptions and while the actual unlicensed practice of engineering is a broader issue and has to be dealt with on a case-by-case basis, we do not see the need to pursue the matter further. Motion passed unanimously.

An Item Writing Workshop was held March 8 & 9, 2010 in Moscow in advance of the ISPLS Annual Meeting. The Workshop was conducted by Jack and Steve Warner of TEST, Inc. out of Aurora, Colorado. Staff would like the Board to consider appointing a subcommittee to develop the final July 2010 version of the Idaho State-Specific PLS exam. Mr. Milligan suggested that we should require a listing of a reference to justify the correct answer and that each distracter needs a clear and documented rationale. The Board noted the suggestion and directed Mr. Howe and Mr. Young to evaluate new items and prepare new exam.

11.

David Kelly would like to obtain a license in Idaho based on comity with his Oregon license. He is licensed as a Traffic Engineer and took a State-Specific exam for licensure. Is this exam equivalent to an NCEES PE exam? Staff obtained a copy of the exam from California. Mr. Milligan reviewed the examination and reported to the Board that the examination is sufficient for approval as a Traffic Engineering examination.

Moved by Mr. Milligan, seconded by Mr. Bennion to approve the examination for licensing purposes and if we get a candidate for comity who has taken and passed it, and is otherwise qualified, we should license them as a professional engineer especially qualified in Traffic Engineering. Staff is directed to consider such applicants as nonstandard. The Board authorized the Chair to inform Mr. Kelly that if he applies for a license in Idaho his education and experience will also need to meet the requirements of Idaho Code and will be evaluated by the Board. Motion passed with Mr. Wagner voting against the motion. IV.

Under the current CPD rules, engineers are exempt from the effective date of the CPD requirement (May 8, 2009) to their next biennial renewal. The Board established a policy that any CPD PDH’s earned by an engineer during the renewal biennium in which the exempt period falls may be carried forward to the next renewal biennium (up to a maximum of 30 PDH’s). If an individual takes and passes the PE exam after May 8, 2008, they are exempt from the CPD requirement during the time between issuance of their license and their next regular biennial renewal.
