CHAPTER 12
ENGINEERS AND SURVEYORS
54-1216.Expirations and renewals -- Fees. Following issuance or renewal of licenses
for professional engineers and professional land surveyors, expiration
shall be on the last day of the month during which the licensee was
born, in even-numbered state of Idaho fiscal years for those born
in even-numbered calendar years and in odd-numbered state of Idaho
fiscal years for those born in odd-numbered calendar years, and shall
become invalid on that date unless renewed. Certificates of authorization
for business entities shall expire on the last day of the month of
July following issuance or renewal and shall become invalid on that
date unless renewed. It shall be the duty of the board to notify every
person licensed and every business entity certified under this chapter,
of the date of the expiration of said license or certificate of authorization
and the amount of the fee that shall be required for its renewal.
Such notice shall be mailed to the last known address of the licensee
or business entity at least one (1) month in advance of the date of
the expiration of said license or certificate of authorization. Renewal
shall be effective at any time in the appropriate year during the
month in which the licensee was born or during the month of July in
the case of business entities, by the payment of a renewal fee to
be fixed by the board at not more than one hundred fifty dollars ($150).
The failure on the part of any licensee or certificate holder to renew
his or its license or certificate biennially in the month in which
they were born or in the month of July in the case of business entities,
as required above shall not deprive such person or business entity
of the right of renewal, but the fee to be paid for the renewal of
a license or certificate after the month in which it is due shall
be increased twenty percent (20%) for each month or fraction of a
month that payment of renewal is delayed; provided, however, that
the maximum fee for delayed renewal shall not exceed twice the renewal
fee for each renewal cycle delinquent, but in no event more than three
hundred dollars ($300). Any work performed after a license or certificate
of authorization has expired, but before delayed renewal has been
effected, shall become valid upon delayed renewal as if the license
or certificate of authorization had not expired, but the licensee
or certificate holder may be subject to disciplinary action by the
board for practice on an expired license or such other action as provided
pursuant to this chapter.
Following issuance
or renewal of certificates for engineer interns and land surveyor
interns, expiration shall be on the last day of the month during which
the certificate holder was born, in even-numbered state of Idaho fiscal
years for those born in even-numbered calendar years and in odd-numbered
state of Idaho fiscal years for those born in odd-numbered calendar
years. The notification to holders of certificates shall be processed
as prescribed above for licensees except that the biennial renewal
fee shall not be more than thirty dollars ($30.00). The failure on
the part of any holder of a certificate to effect renewal shall not
invalidate his status as an engineer intern or land surveyor intern,
but his name shall be removed from the board’s mailing list.
