Sec. 12705.

(1)The department shall issue certificates of registration to well drilling contractors and pump installers who meet the requirements of sections 12701 to 12715.

(2)A certificate of registration is not transferable and expires on April 30 of each year. After July 1 of each year a certificate of registration may be renewed only upon application for renewal and payment of a fee of 50% of the basic registration fee in addition to the regular registration fee.

(3)A new applicant for a certificate of registration shall be examined in accordance with the rules and construction code promulgated under section 12714. The advisory board created by section 12711 shall determine and advise the department as to the eligibility of a well drilling contractor or pump installer for registration. A well drilling contractor or pump installer which is a firm, partnership, or corporation shall designate at least 1 partner, officer, or responsible full-time employee to take the examination on its behalf.

(4)The department, upon application and payment of the prescribed fees, may issue a certificate of registration as a well drilling contractor or a pump installer to a person who holds a similar certificate of registration in another state or a foreign country, if the requirements for the registration of a well drilling contractor and pump installer under which the certificate of registration was issued do not conflict with this part, are of a standard not lower than that specified by the rules and construction code promulgated under section 12714, and if equal reciprocal privileges are granted to a registrant of this state.
