(a) The
				seal authorized by the Board for Licensees is of the crimp type and/or rubber
				stamp facsimile and shall be of a design shown. The seal consists of two
				concentric circles with the diameter of the outer circle being 1-3/4 inches and
				the diameter of the inner circle being 1-1/4 inches. The upper portion between
				the two circles shall bear whichever of the following phrases is applicable to
				the Licensee: "Professional Engineer"; "Professional Land Surveyor"; or
				"Professional Engineer & Land Surveyor." At the bottom of the annular space
				between the two circles shall appear the inscription "Wyoming"; the inner
				circle shall contain the name of the Licensee, license number and the word
				"Date." The license number assigned should be centered in the inner area of the
				seal in the space occupied by the word "NUMBER" and the size of the numbers
				should not be larger than the word "NAME." The words and parentheses
				"(NUMBER)", and "(NAME)", should not appear on the seal.
(b) Seals authorized prior to July 1, 2013,
				may continue to be used.
(c) An
				imprint of the Licensee's valid seal shall appear on original and non-original
				copies, tracings or other documents, as required by
				W.S.
				33-29-801. Seals generated electronically are
				acceptable if accompanied by a signature and date of the Licensee preparing the
				generated document and as long as the electronically generated seal complies
				with the requirements outlined in subsection (a) above. When the document
				contains more than one sheet, the title page(s) or the first page of a
				Licensee's work shall be sealed, signed and dated by the Licensee who
				supervised the work and is responsible for such work. To be valid, any seal
				must be legible in its entirety and the signature of the Licensee and date of
				signing must be superimposed over the seal. Legible full size or reduced
				reproductions of sealed, signed and dated documents are acceptable as long as
				an original, including the signature, seal and date, is maintained in the
				Licensee's possession.
(d) In
				accordance with the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, (W.S.
				40-21-101 through
				40-21-119 ), an
				electronic image of the Licensee's seal, signature, and date is permitted to be
				used in lieu of an original seal, signature and date on electronic submittals
				made to agencies of local, state, and federal governments or between private
				entities if they so desire.
(e)
				Drawings, reports, or documents that require a signature may be signed using a
				digital signature. The digital signature must be:
(i) Unique to the Licensee using
				it;
(ii) Capable of verification;
				and
(iii) Under the sole
				responsibility and control of the Licensee affixing it; and
(iv) Linked to a document in such a manner
				that the digital signature is invalidated if any data in the document is
				changed. A digital signature that uses a process approved by the board will be
				presumed to meet the criteria set forth in subsections (c)(i) through (iii).
				Any hard copy printed from the transmitted electronic file shall bear the
				facsimile of the signature and seal and be a confirmation that the electronic
				file was not altered after the initial digital signing of the file. Any
				alterations to the file shall cause the facsimile of the signature to be
				voided.
