The transferor shall surrender his license certificate after a written request for transfer to another owner has been received by the department of Consumer Protection and before such transfer is approved. Where a certificate cannot be located, a letter from the owner of the property stating that the old lease has been terminated and a new lease has been granted to the person applying for such transfer and the previously licensed person's whereabouts are unknown shall be accepted in lieu thereof.
