(a)Timely applications. If a licensee submits a timely and sufficient application for new annual registration permit, the existing permit does not expire until the application has been finally determined by the agency. If the application is denied or the terms of the new permit are limited, the existing permit does not expire until the last day for seeking review of the agency order or a later date fixed by order of the reviewing court. (b)Late applications. A licensee must submit an application for an annual registration permit in a timely manner. A licensee shall be provided written notice at the licensee's address of record at least 30 days prior to the expiration date of the permit. Failure to submit an application for the permit by the appropriate deadline shall render the license invalid. If a permit is expired for more than one year, the license shall be considered canceled and may not be renewed. The board shall formally cancel the license at the next scheduled meeting of the board. (c)Temporary suspensions. Nothing in this rule may be construed to violate or contradict the temporary suspension provisions of §164.059 of the Act.
This agency hereby certifies that the proposal has been reviewed
by legal counsel
and found to be within the agency's legal authority to adopt.
