BOARD FUNCTION: The Board of Geology (hereafter designated as "the Board") protects the general public by ensuring that geological services are provided by licensed professionals. The Board regulates this profession by formulating rules and regulations, creating the application form for licensing purposes; processing all applications; designating the written, standardized examination; establishing minimum education, training and experience requirements for licensure as geologists; evaluating the credentials of applicants; granting licenses; renewing licenses; refering written complaints from the licensees/public to the Division of Professional Regulation Investigative Unit for investigation; conducting hearings, and determining after a hearing what penalties or sanctions should be imposed. (24 Del. C., Chapter 36, § 3601-3623)

To assure consideration of your license application at the next meeting, the Board office must receive all of these items no later than 4:30 PM ten full working days before the meeting date:

• Completed, signed and notarized application form
• Fee payment, and
• All required supporting documentation (see “License Requirements” on the menu to your left).
