1. Upon conviction, the instructor shall cease providing instruction and shall surrender the identification card to the Marine Services Bureau. Upon termination of instructor status the Marine Services Bureau shall not process any applications for boat safety certificates forwarded by the provider, if any part of the course was administered after the date of conviction.

(e) Upon expiration of an instructor's approval, or at any time that an instructor's approval has been revoked or suspended, or an application for approval or re-approval has been denied, or the expiration date on the instructor identification card has passed, the instructor identification card and any applications for boat safety certificate held by that instructor shall be forwarded immediately to the Marine Services Bureau in a manner prescribed by the Superintendent.
