Fla. Admin. Code Ann. R. 62-6.021 - Issuance of Registration Certificates and Renewal
(1) Certificates of registration shall be
renewed only after information has been provided to the Department that the
contractor has successfully completed 12 classroom hours of Department-approved
instruction within the previous 12-month period. However, if a registered
contractor successfully completes more hours of approved instruction than are
required for registration renewal within a 12-month period, a maximum of 6
unused hours can be rolled over to renew their next year's certificate of
registration. Such information shall be accompanied by necessary renewal fees
and a completed renewal application on Form DEP 4076, Application for Septic
Tank Contractor Registration Renewal.
(2) Any registration renewal application
which for any reason is not submitted in a timely and complete manner shall
revert to inactive status. Each application for renewal shall be considered
filed in a timely manner if the application has been postmarked prior to the
close of business on the date of expiration of the registration. If that date
falls on a weekend or legal holiday, the date of expiration shall be the first
working day after the expiration date on the certificate of
registration.
(3) A registered
contractor may request inactive status. Persons wishing to renew an inactive
registration must make application on Form DEP 4076 and substantiate 12
classroom hours of approved instruction for each year the registration was
considered inactive. Application must be accompanied by necessary exhibits and
renewal fees. Persons holding inactive registrations for more than five renewal
cycles from the date of inactivation who wish to become active may not renew
the inactive registration but shall seek new registration under Rule
62-6.019, F.A.C.
(4) The Department shall deny an application
for renewal if there is any outstanding administrative penalty with the
department where the penalty is final agency action and all judicial reviews
are exhausted.
(5) Approval of
continuing education courses and course providers will be in accordance with
the Department Policy on Requirements for Continuing Education Courses and
Course Providers, September 2006, (formerly from Department of Health), herein
incorporated by reference.
(6)
Beginning in 2004 and every 5 years thereafter, registration renewal
applications shall include a recent color passport style photograph 1 1/2'' x 1
1/2'' inches in size and not older than 12 months. The applicant may provide
the required photograph as a photographic print or in digital JPEG or TIFF
