Abstract
Until the end of March it appeared that much of the work carried out by scientists in the Canadian province of British Columbia was to be made illegal. Under a draft Engineering Act being drawn up by the British Columbia's Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists (APEGBC), such work was to have fallen within the definition of professional engineering and would therefore have to have been carried out, or be overseen, by an engineer. But, after much negotiation between Canadian scientists and engineers, the APEGBC has agreed that scientists should be exempt from the act.
