Each person licensed under the provisions of KRS 198B.400 to 198B.540 shall
annually, on or before the last day of the licensee's birth month, renew his or her
license.
A sixty (60) day grace period shall be allowed after the anniversary date of the
license, during which time a licensee may continue to practice and may renew his or
her license upon meeting the requirements promulgated through administrative
regulations by the department.
A license not renewed before the end of the sixty (60) day grace period shall
terminate based on the failure of the licensee to renew in a timely manner. Upon
termination, the licensee shall be ineligible to practice in the Commonwealth.
After the sixty (60) day grace period, a former licensee with a terminated license
may have the license reinstated upon meeting the requirements promulgated through
administrative regulations by the department. An applicant for reinstatement after
termination of the license shall not be required to submit to any examination as a
condition for reinstatement, if the reinstatement application is made within three (3)
years from the date of termination.
A suspended license is subject to expiration and termination and shall be renewed
as provided in this section. Renewal shall not entitle the licensee to engage in the
practice until the suspension has ended or is otherwise removed by the department
and the right to practice is restored by the department.
A revoked license is subject to reinstatement, expiration, or termination but may not
be renewed.
An applicant for renewal or reinstatement of a license shall show evidence of
completing at least eight (8) hours of continuing education provided by the National
Elevator Industry Educational Program, National Association of Elevator
Contractors, or another provider approved by the department. The department shall
promulgate administrative regulations establishing the permissible content of
continuing education programs and the qualifications of the providers.
When applicable, an applicant for renewal or reinstatement of an elevator contractor
license shall submit proof that the applicant has complied with workers'
compensation and unemployment insurance laws and administrative regulations and
has obtained general liability coverage of at least one million dollars ($1,000,000)
for injury or death of any number of persons in any one (1) occurrence, with
coverage of at least five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000) for property damage
in any one (1) occurrence.
The department may, through the promulgation of administrative regulations:
(a) Establish an inactive license for licensees who are not actively engaging in the
elevator or fixed guideway system business, but who wish to maintain their
license;
(b) Determine continuing education requirements for reactivation;
(c) Waive the insurance requirements established in subsection (8) of this section
(d)
for inactive licensees; and
Establish reactivation procedures.
