(a) A person
seeking certification under this chapter shall submit a completed application
to the division assigned occupational licensing functions in the Department of
Commerce, Community, and Economic Development on a form provided by the
division, and shall pay the applicable fees set by
18 AAC 78.495.
(b) An applicant must
(1) be an individual;
(2) meet the work experience or educational
requirements at
18 AAC 78.425;
(4) have all other licenses applicable to the
profession for which certification is sought.
(c) If the application is for tank tightness
testing, the applicant shall designate the type or types of tightness test for
which certification is sought, and show proof that he or she is certified by
the manufacturer of the particular tank tightness test. The test method must
meet the requirements of
18 AAC 78.065(d).
The manufacturer's certification must remain in effect for the duration of a
certification issued under this chapter. The department will, in its

issue or renew a certification for inspection unless the applicant is certified
in UST installation and cathodic protection.
(e) A person whose UST certification is
suspended or revoked under this chapter, or by another state if certification
is received through reciprocity under
