Section 34-41-13, Code of Ala. 1975, makes no specific designations as to the specialties of Geology for which Certificate of Licensure as Professional Geologist shall be issued; however, the Rules of Professional Conduct, Rule 364-X-14-.03, provides that a professional geologist shall act only in fields in which he/she is qualified by education, training or experience. For consideration under Section 34-41-10, Code of Ala. 1975, the Board will recognize degrees received in Geology from accredited institutions and will issue Certificates of Licensure as a Professional Geologist to applicants who demonstrate their qualifications under the provisions of the Law and in conformity with the Rules and Regulations of the Board.
