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. On or after July 1, 2010, the executive director of the board shall send renewal notices to business entities that have been issued a certificate of authorization. The renewal fee amount shall be for a period of one (1) year plus a prorated annual renewal fee amount for the number of months from and including August to and including the month in which the certificate of authorization was originally issued. Thereafter, certificates of authorization for business entities shall expire on the last day of the month in which the certificates were initially issued 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 in which the certificates were initially issued 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 in which the certificates were initially issued 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.
