Is it usual for a CPA to ask a client to sign a POA before preparing a tax return?

I was referred to a private CPA by a friend after making a mistake on my 2002 Tax return which ended up costing me $3000. When I consulted with this CPA, he said that in order that he could act in my behalf I would have to give him a POA. Is this normal. What can he do with it?
