administrator's approval of an application, the administrator shall license the
conveyance contractor, conveyance mechanic, or conveyance inspector.

(b) The administrator shall promulgate rules requiring a conveyance
mechanic to obtain at least eight hours of continuing education every two years.

(2) (a) When an emergency exists in this state due to a disaster, act of God,
or work stoppage and the number of certified conveyance mechanics in the state is
insufficient to deal with the emergency, a certified conveyance contractor may
respond as necessary to assure the safety of the public. A person who, in the
judgment of a certified conveyance contractor, has an acceptable combination of
documented experience and education to perform conveyance work without direct
supervision shall seek an emergency conveyance mechanic certification from the
administrator within five business days after commencing work for which
certification as a conveyance mechanic is required.

(b) The administrator shall issue emergency conveyance mechanic
certifications pursuant to paragraph (a) of this subsection (2). The certified
conveyance contractor recommending a person for an emergency conveyance
mechanic certification shall furnish such proof of the person's competency as the
administrator may require.

(c) Each emergency conveyance mechanic certification shall be, and shall
state that it is, valid for sixty days after the date of issuance and for such particular
conveyances or geographical areas as the administrator may designate. Such
certification shall entitle the holder to the rights of a certified conveyance
mechanic. The administrator shall renew an emergency conveyance mechanic
certification during the existence of an emergency. No fee shall be charged for the
issuance or renewal of an emergency conveyance mechanic certification.

(3) (a) A certified conveyance contractor shall notify the administrator when
there are no certified conveyance mechanics available to perform conveyance work.
The certified conveyance contractor may request that the administrator issue a
temporary conveyance mechanic certification to a person who, in the judgment of
the certified conveyance contractor, has an acceptable combination of documented
experience and education to perform conveyance work without direct supervision.
Any such person shall immediately seek a temporary conveyance mechanic
certification from the administrator and shall pay such fee as the administrator
shall determine.

(b) Each such certification shall be, and shall state that it is, valid for thirty
days after the date of issuance and while employed by the certified conveyance
contractor who certified the individual as qualified. The certification shall be
renewable as long as there is a shortage of licensed conveyance mechanics.

(4) Except for certified inspectors who qualified during the immediately
preceding twelve months, the administrator shall not renew a certification issued
under this section unless the person meets the qualifications for certification under
section 9-5.5-107.

issued pursuant to this section. The fees shall be in an amount to offset the direct
and indirect costs of administering this article.
