Purpose


Includes changes to all rules listed above to show that Minimum Technical Standards have been changed under the statute to Standards of Practice; clarifies in 5J-17.001 that violations of Chapter 177, F.S., which may be prosecuted by the Board are not limited to violations only of Part I of that chapter; adds the words “and Mapping” in 5J-17.032 after the word “Surveying” and the words “and mapping” in 5J-17.051 after the word “surveying” so as to correctly refer to the practice and profession being regulated as surveying and mapping; adds definitions to 5J-17.050 to clarify the meaning of words used in 472.027, F.S., and to facilitate the removal from 5J-17.010 of cumbersome and unnecessarily repetitive language; adds one new rule, 5J-17.053, to contain standards for professional conduct; moves existing standards for professional conduct which are currently contained in 5J-17.010 into the new 5J-17.053.
