RE: Petition for Authorization to Repeal Administrative Rules
Dear Senator Nass and Representative Ballweg:
I am petitioning for authorization to repeal portions of A-E Chapters 10, 11, 12, and 13, relating to continuing education audits for Professional Land Surveyors, Landscape Architects, Architects, and Professional Engineers, respectively. A copy of the proposed rule is attached.
2017 Wisconsin Act 59, section 1904, limits the authority of the Examining Board of Architects, Landscape Architects, Professional Engineers, Designers, and Professional Land Surveyors to conduct audits of credential holders. A-E Chapters 10, 11, 12, and 13 authorize random audits of credential holders, thus these subsections are being repealed or amended to comply with 2017 Wisconsin Act 59, section 1904. Therefore, the Board is requesting authorization to amend these chapters by utilizing the expedited process under s. 227.26 (4), Stats. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Rosheen Styczinski
Chairperson
Examining Board of Architects, Landscape Architects, Professional Engineers, Designers, and Professional Land Surveyors
