The Well Drillers’ Advisory Board is comprised of five members, appointed by the State Engineer, whose duties include interviewing applicants and providing recommendations related to issuing well drilling licenses. The Board also advises the Division regarding enforcement actions or complaints against licensed well drillers at disciplinary hearings and may make recommendations to the State Engineer regarding the suspension or revocation of the license of any well driller.
The Board meets quarterly in Carson City and Las Vegas to examine and interview applicants for licensure. The Division works in collaboration with the Board to create rules and regulations for licensed well drillers outlined in Nevada Administrative Code 534.
