Application for a license shall be on a form provided by the department. The nonfee license shall be valid only when the consultant is acting in that capacity as an employee of his governmental employer. Federal and state employees whose principal responsibilities are in pesticide research shall be exempt from this licensing provision while acting in their official capacities.
