RE: Fwd: [DBRVH_LTBL] FW: NRC Inspector General Interview Transcripts Now Available Online]

[Susan L Gawarecki <loc@icx.net>]

Dave Lochbaum represents himself as a "Nuclear Safety Engineer."



However, he is not a licensed engineer.  His profile at Union of

Concerned Scientists (Washington, DC) states "Lochbaum is a nuclear

engineer by training..." so he apparently does not have an engineering

degree.  In fact, if he has a college degree, it is not mentioned. 

Generally experts like to promote their educational background.



The following information was provided by Arthur Schwartz, the General

Counsel of the National Society of Professional Engineers:



Under the DC Code § 47-2853.133. Certain representations prohibited.



Unless licensed to practice engineering under this subchapter, no person 

shall engage directly or indirectly in the practice of engineering in

the 

District or use the title "engineer", "registered engineer",

"engineering 

design", "professional engineer" or display or use any words or letters, 

figures, titles, signs, cards, advertisement or any other symbols or 

devices indicating or tending to indicate that the person is an engineer

or 

is practicing engineering.



Mr. Lochbaum appears to be in violation of the above law, as well as

misrepresenting his professional position. 



Any opinons expressed are my own.
