1. The Division shall process each application submitted for renewal of a well-drilling license pursuant to NAC 534.2923 in the order in which the applications are received by the Division. If the State Engineer determines that an application is complete and the applicant is qualified, the Division shall renew the license for the period ending on June 30 of the year after approval of the renewal.

(d) Is not otherwise in compliance with this chapter or chapter 534 of NRS; or

(e) Has accumulated 100 demerit points or more against his or her license.

3. If the State Engineer determines that a well driller has an unacceptable history of noncompliance with this chapter and chapter 534 of NRS, the Division may deny renewal, refuse renewal for a specified time, or renew the license of the well driller with conditions that the State Engineer considers appropriate. In making this determination, the State Engineer will consider:

(a) The actions of the well driller with regard to his or her well-drilling license or other permits issued by the State Engineer pursuant to this chapter or chapter 534 of NRS.

(b) The failure to submit or the failure to submit in a timely manner by the well driller any corrections to a Well Driller's Report required pursuant to NAC 534.345.
