37-54-403. Standards of professional appraisal practice. (1) A licensed or certified real estate appraiser shall comply with generally accepted standards of professional appraisal practice, evidenced by the uniform standards of professional appraisal practice promulgated by the appraisal standards board of the appraisal foundation. A licensed or certified real estate appraiser shall comply with these standards regardless of whether the appraisal is a federally related transaction or is capable of being performed by an unlicensed person under 37-54-201(3).
(2) If the appraisal standards board of the appraisal foundation modifies the standards or issues supplemental standards that it considers appropriate for all classes of real estate appraisers, the modification is automatically adopted as observable in this state unless the board determines that a public hearing is necessary to determine whether the modified or supplemented standards must be observed in this state. If following the hearing the board determines that the modified or supplemented standards are appropriate, the board shall adopt the standards by rule.
