Kentucky Board of Registration for Professional Geologists
The new Web site for the Board of Registration for Professional Geologists is now available at the following link:
http://bpg.ky.gov
As of June 30, 2009 this Web site is no longer being updated.
The purpose of the Board of Registration for Professional Geologists is to administer and enforce the statutory authority and to monitor the needs of the consuming public. The Board examines and licenses all eligible candidates for entry into the profession as a Professional Geologist. It recommends appropriate changes in the law to assure fairness and equality. The Board conducts formal hearings when necessary and prosecutes by due process any violators of KRS 322A.
Please be aware that it is your responsibility to keep the board notified of any address or name changes. Failure to do so may result in delays in the licensing process.
