Bill Summary
An Act relating to professions and occupations; amending 59 O.S. 2021, Section 475.3, as last amended by Section 11, Chapter 147, O.S.L. 2024 (59 O.S.

AI Summary
This bill extends the "sunset date" for the State Board of Licensure for Professional Engineers and Surveyors, which is the date by which the board is scheduled to be automatically dissolved unless its existence is renewed by law. Specifically, the bill changes this date from July 1, 2026, to July 1, 2031, meaning the board will continue to operate for an additional five years. The bill also makes minor updates to the statutory language regarding the composition and appointment of board members, including clarifying that at least one member shall not be a professional engineer, and it declares an emergency, allowing the act to take effect immediately upon passage and approval rather than on a specific future date.
