Case context
Engineer A reviewed State Z's licensing board rules and identified that XYZ Engineers' qualification proposals failed to include, next to each specific prior-employer project listing, detailed information naming the previous firm and Engineer B's specific involvement — a clear violation of State Z's explicit attribution requirements. State Z's rules expressly require licensees with such knowledge to report to the Board in writing.

Source text
The Rules in both states require a licensee who has knowledge or reason to believe that a person or firm has violated those Rules to report such knowledge or belief to the Board of Licensure in writing
Text references
Engineer Q finds that the Rules in State Z, which have a long and unique legislative history, are much more specific, indicating in part that 'a licensee who has been an employee of another design firm may not claim unconditional credit for design projects contracted for in the name of a previous employer'
