1. The operator is found to have falsified any application for certification and training based upon which the operator was admitted for training.

a. Conviction, plea of guilty, plea of no contest or admission of guilt (regardless of withheld adjudication) to a felony, a crime punishable by a sentence of more than one year (regardless of the sentence actually imposed, if any), or a crime of moral turpitude;

b. Unlawful use of a controlled substance;

c. Misrepresentation of employment-related information;

d. Violations of criminal law resulting from administrative inquiries;
