§ 795. Renewal of certificate of registration or temporary certificate

of registration. 1. The secretary shall provide a method for the

2. The department shall reissue a certificate of registration upon

receipt of a renewal application, the renewal fee, and a written

statement affirming compliance with all other requirements set forth in

this article including evidence of compliance with section seven hundred

ninety-four of this article. A registrant shall retain, if applicable, a

certificate from a manufacturer or independent testing agent certifying

that the testing room utilized by such registrant meets the requirements

of section seven hundred ninety-eight of this article and, if

applicable, a certificate from a manufacturer or independent testing

agent stating that all audiometric testing equipment used by the

requirements or in accordance with standards promulgated under article

one hundred fifty-nine of the education law.

3. Any certificate of registration which is not renewed at the end of

the biennial period of registration as prescribed by the secretary shall

automatically revert to an inactive status. If the certificate of

registration has not been renewed within thirty days subsequent to the

biennial expiration date, the secretary shall send notice by mail to the

last known address of the registrant. Such notice shall advise the

registrant of the inactive status and the procedures required to

reactivate a valid certificate of registration. Such notice shall detail

the criteria and fees to be satisfied for reactivation. If such

registration is not reactivated, on the ninetieth day after the end of

the biennial registration period, such registration shall lapse.

4. The department shall reissue a temporary certificate of

registration valid for a period of one year upon the receipt of a

renewal application, the renewal fee and a written statement verifying

continued supervision by a registered hearing aid dispenser.
