In this proposed rule-making order the Examining Board of Architects, Landscape Architects, Professional Engineers, Designers and Land Surveyors repeal and amend rules that relate to the practice of professional geology. 1997 Wis. Act 300 created the Examining Board of Professional Geologists, Hydrologists and Soil Scientists.

The rules relating to professional geologists are now in the newly-created Examining Board of Professional Geologists, Hydrologists and Soil Scientists.
In SECTION 2, the composition of the rules committee is changed from “6 sections of the board" to “5 sections of the board" because of the removal of the professional geology section.
