NAC555.397. Fees.

     1. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 3, an applicant for a license must pay to the Director, as applicable:

     (a) For examination or reexamination, a testing fee of $25 for each category of pest control in which the applicant wishes to be examined;

     (b) For licensure of a pest control business, a licensing fee of $250;

     (c) For licensure of a principal or operator, a licensing fee of $50; and

     (d) For licensure of an agent, a licensing fee of $350.

     2. The Director will charge a fee of $25 to issue a duplicate license to replace a license that has been lost, mutilated or destroyed.

     3. An applicant for licensure of a pest control business or principal may request a hardship fee reduction in licensing fees by submitting a written request for such a reduction to the Director. The request must include the amount of income the applicant has received from the application of pest control for at least the immediately preceding 12 months or for the duration of the business of the applicant, whichever is shorter. The Director may grant a hardship fee reduction if he or she determines that paying the fee described in subsection 1 would require the business of the applicant to cease operations or would prevent the business from beginning operations because of lack of money. If the Director grants a hardship fee reduction, the fee for licensure of a pest control business is $50 and the fee for licensure of a principal is $15. The Director may not grant a hardship fee reduction for a testing fee.
