A person licensed under 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 of a license, 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 shall be 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 shall be subject to reinstatement, expiration, or termination
but shall 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 for inactive licensees; and
(d)
Establish reactivation procedures.
