(1)Except as provided in KRS 217B.090, it shall be unlawful for any person to act as

an employee of a pesticide operator or dealer and apply pesticides without having

obtained an applicator's license from the department. An applicator's license shall be

in addition to any other license or permit required by law. Any person applying for

an applicator's license shall file an application on a form prescribed by the

department on or before January 1 of each year. Application for a license to apply

pesticides shall be accompanied by a license fee of twenty-five dollars ($25). The

provisions of this section shall not apply to any individual who has passed the

examination provided for in KRS 217B.060(3), and is a licensed pesticide operator.

If the department finds the applicant qualified to apply pesticides in the

classifications he has applied for after examinations as provided for in KRS

217B.060(3), and if the applicant applying for a license to engage in aerial

applications of pesticides has met all of the requirements of the Federal Aviation

Agency and the Transportation Cabinet to operate the equipment described in the

application, the department shall issue a pesticide applicator license limited to the

classifications for which he is qualified which shall expire at the end of the calendar

year of issue unless it has been revoked or suspended prior to that by the department

for cause as provided for in KRS 217B.120.

(2)No license shall be issued unless the applicant holds a valid certification within this

category.

(3)No license shall be issued unless the applicant is employed or supervised by a

person who holds a valid operator's license.
