(a) A Landscape Architect shall not practice landscape architecture
in any manner which, when measured by generally accepted landscape architectural
standards or procedures, is reasonably likely to result or does result in
the endangerment of the safety, health, or welfare of the public.
(b) "Recklessness" shall be grounds for disciplinary action
by the Board. "Recklessness" shall include the following practices:
(1) conduct which indicates that the Landscape Architect is
aware of yet consciously disregards a substantial risk of such a nature that
its disregard constitutes a significant deviation from the standard of care
that a reasonably prudent landscape architect would exercise under the circumstances;
(2) knowing failure to exercise ordinary care and attention
toward the intended result when a procedure, technique, material, or system
is employed as a result of a decision made by the Landscape Architect and
such failure jeopardizes any person's health, safety, or welfare; or
(3) action which demonstrates a conscious disregard for compliance
with a statute, regulation, code, ordinance, or recognized standard applicable
to the design or construction of a particular project when such disregard
jeopardizes any person's health, safety, or welfare.
