Licensee Name:       John H. Bretz

License Number:     76807

License Type:           Professional Engineer

Upon the entry of the order of Secretary Halsey Beshears, the license is suspended, effective immediately, until further administrative proceedings seeking formal discipline of the license of John H. Bretz may be instituted pursuant to chapter 120, Florida Statutes.

This emergency license action is based on a finding that immediate danger to public health, safety, or welfare requires suspension of the license to avoid future harm.  The attached agency order, as filed on November 5, 2019, provides additional information regarding the circumstances and findings prompting the emergency suspension of License Number 76807.
