Be it enacted by the Legislature of West Virginia:
That section six, article thirteen-a, chapter thirty of the
code of West Virginia, one thousand nine hundred thirty-one, as
amended, be amended and reenacted to read as follows:
ARTICLE 13A. ENGINEERS.
§30-13A-6. Issuance of license; notice of expiration; renewal;
renewal fee; display.
(a) Whenever the board finds that an applicant meets all of
the requirements of this article for a license to engage in the
practice of land surveying, it shall
forthwith issue
to such person
such the license.
and otherwise If the board
finds that the applicant does not meet the requirement, it shall deny the same.
All licenses, whether original or renewal, shall expire on the
thirtieth day of June following the date of issuance or renewal.
(b) The secretary-treasurer of the board shall mail to every
licensee, at least thirty days prior to the expiration of
such a
license, notice of the expiration date and the amount of the
renewal fee. A license may be renewed without examination upon
application for a renewal on a form prescribed by the board and
payment to the board of an annual renewal fee of
forty sixty-five
dollars:
Provided, That the board is authorized to establish or
adjust the amount of renewal fees by legislative rule: Provided,
however, That the renewal fee set forth in this section shall
remain in effect until the effective date of the legislative rule
authorized by this section.
(c) If a license is not renewed when due, the fee shall
increase one dollar per month for each month or fraction thereof
that
such the renewal fee is not paid, up to a maximum of
thirty-six months.
(d) No license
shall may be renewed after expiration of
said
period of thirty-six months.
and The fact that a license cannot be
renewed because of the expiration
of said period of thirty-six
months
shall may not prevent
such the person from making
application for a new license.
(e) The board may deny any application for renewal for any
reason which would justify the denial of an original application for a license.
(f) The board shall prescribe the form of licenses and each
such license shall be conspicuously displayed by the licensee at
his or her principal place of practice.
(g) A duplicate license may be issued upon payment of a fee of
ten dollars.
NOTE: The purpose of this bill is to authorize the board of
examiners of land surveyors to set renewal fees by legislative
rule.
