A. An applicator's license shall be issued only after satisfactory completion of the certification standards by the person who shall be the certified applicator under the license. Temporary certified applicators do not qualify as the certified applicator for a license, nor may they act as a certified applicator. The Board shall deny the application for certification, recertification, issuance, or renewal of a certificate or license for a failure to show proper qualification under the rules or for violations of any provisions of this section. A certificate in any category shall be valid for five (5) years unless suspended, canceled, or revoked by the Board or until recertification is required for the category, and may be renewed after successful completion of recertification requirements. The Board may require certified applicators to be recertified once in a five-year period. B. A certified service technician identification shall be issued upon application and completion of certification standards determined by the Board. Temporary certified applicators may qualify as a certified service technician. No person shall act, do business as, or advertise as a service technician unless the person has met all the qualifications and standards as required by the Board. The service technicians' identification shall be issued in the name of the licensed entity. The licensee shall ensure that the service technician identification is returned to the Board upon termination of the employee. A service technician identification shall be valid for a period of five (5) years unless suspended, canceled, or revoked by the Board, until recertification is required by the Board, or until the service technician leaves the employ of the licensed entity. The Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Food, and Forestry may issue a service technician identification upon completion of the following: 1. A determination is made by the Department that the applicant has successfully completed the written examination; 2. The licensed entity provides a completed service technician identification application form at the time of testing; and 3. All appropriate fees are paid at the time of testing. C. Each license, except for private applicators, shall expire on dates established by the Department in administrative rules and may be renewed for the ensuing calendar year, without penalty or reexamination, if a properly completed application is filed with the Board on a date established by the Department. If the application is not received by the due date, a penalty of twice the amount of the renewal fee shall be charged for renewal of the license. If the application is not received within thirty (30) days following the due date, an additional one-hundred-dollar penalty shall be paid prior to license renewal. All private applicator licenses are in effect for five (5) years and may be renewed by application after completion of a continuing education program or written exam approved by the Board.
