Certificates of licensure, and therefore the right to practice engineering or surveying, become invalid on the last day of the month of December unless renewed.
The responsibility for the annual renewal of a licensee's certificate rests solely with the individual licensee. Failure to receive a notice does not relieve a licensee from the duty of renewal of his certificate. Returning renewal fees in a timely manner is the responsibility of the licensee.
