The initial license for a master or journeyman plumber shall expire on the last
day of the licensee's birth month in the following year. The department may
reduce the license fee on a pro rata basis for initial licenses issued for less
than twelve (12) months. Renewed licenses shall expire on the last day of the
licensee's birth month of each year after the date of issuance of the renewed
license.
The department shall require an applicant for renewal of a license to show
evidence of completing the continuing education requirements set forth by the
department, with advice from the State Plumbing Code Committee, in its
administrative regulations issued under KRS 318.130.
The department shall send each licensed master and journeyman plumber a
notice advising them that the annual license renewal fee is due. The notice
shall be sent to the licensee's last known address no later than thirty (30) days
prior to the expiration of the license. The annual license renewal fee shall be a
reasonable fee set by regulation of the department. The fee for the renewal of
a master plumber's license shall exceed the fee charged for a journeyman
plumber's license.
Any master or journeyman plumber who fails to renew his license prior to
expiration may have his license renewed upon payment of the required
renewal fee, a revival fee, and upon showing the completion of continuing
education requirements. The revival fee for a master plumber shall be five
dollars ($5) and for a journeyman plumber three dollars ($3). If the renewal and
revival fees are not paid one hundred eighty (180) days after the license
expires, such licenses shall be automatically canceled by operation of law for
nonpayment; provided, however, that such licenses may be reinstated upon
payment of all delinquent renewal fees plus a revival fee of ten dollars ($10) for
a master plumber and six dollars ($6) for a journeyman plumber. Upon
presentation of proper evidence, the department may waive payment of any
renewal or revival fee specified herein for persons serving on active duty in the
Armed Forces of the United States.
