CHAPTER 535GENERAL PROVISIONS
SUBCHAPTER TEASEMENT OR RIGHT-OF-WAY AGENTS
RULE §535.403Renewal of Registration
ISSUE 06/09/2023
ACTION Final/Adopted
Preamble Texas Admin Code Rule

(a)Renewal application.

  (1)A registration expires on the date shown on the face of the registration issued to the certificate holder.

  (2)If a certificate holder intends to renew an unexpired registration, the certificate holder must, on or before the expiration date of the current registration:

    (A)file a renewal application through the online process on the Commission's website or on the applicable form approved by the Commission;

    (B)submit the appropriate fee required by §535.404 of this subchapter (relating to Fees); and

    (C)comply with the fingerprinting and education requirements under the Act.

(b)Failure to provide information requested by the Commission in connection with a renewal application is grounds for disciplinary action under §1101.653 of the Act.

(c)A registrant who fails to timely renew must apply for and receive a new registration in order to act as an easement or right-of-way agent.

(d)The Commission will deliver a registration renewal notice to a certificate holder three months before the expiration of the certificate holder's current registration. Failure to receive the certificate renewal notice does not relieve a certificate holder of the obligation to renew a certificate.

(e)The Commission is not required to notify a business entity such as a corporation, limited liability company, or partnership that has failed to designate an officer, manager, or general partner who meets the requirements of §1101.502 of the Act. The Commission may not renew a registration issued to a business entity that has not designated an officer, manager, or general partner who meets the requirements of the Act.

(f)If the registration expires on a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which the Commission is not open for business, a renewal application is considered to be timely filed when the application is received or postmarked no later than the first business day after the expiration date of the registration.

(g)Denial of Renewal. The Commission may deny an application for renewal of a registration if the certificate holder is in violation of the terms of a Commission order.

The agency certifies that legal counsel has reviewed the adoption and found it to be a valid exercise of the agency's legal authority.
