Universal Citation: WI Admin Code § NR 670.051

Current through August 26, 2024

(1) The conditions of an expired operating license continue in force until the department takes final action on a complete application if:

(a) The licensee has submitted a timely application under s. NR 670.014 and the applicable sections of ss. NR 670.015 to 670.029 which is a complete application for a new license under s. NR 670.010(3).

(b) The department through no fault of the licensee, does not issue a new operating license with an effective date under s. NR 670.415 on or before the expiration date of the previous license, for example, when issuance is impracticable due to time or resource constraints.

(2) Operating licenses continued under this section remain fully effective and enforceable.

(3) When the licensee is not in compliance with the conditions of the expiring or expired operating license, the department may choose to do any of the following:

(a) Initiate enforcement action based upon the operating license which has been continued.

(b) Issue a preliminary determination to deny the new operating license under s. NR 670.406. If the new operating license is denied, the owner or operator shall cease the activities authorized by the continued license or be subject to enforcement action for operating without a license.

(5) STANDARDIZED LICENSES.

(a) The conditions of your expired standardized license continue until the effective date of your new license if all of the following are true:

1. If the department is the license-issuing authority.

2. If you submit a timely and complete notice of intent under s. NR 670.270(2) requesting coverage under a standardized license.

3. If the department, through no fault on your part, does not issue your license before your previous license expires (for example, where it is impractical to make the license effective by that date because of time or resource constraints).

(b) In some cases, the department may notify you that you are not eligible for a standardized license (see s. NR 670.506). In those cases, the conditions of your expired license will continue if you submit the information specified in sub. (1) (a) (that is, a complete application for a new license) within 60 days after you receive our notification that you are not eligible for a standardized license.
