Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 24, December 18, 2024

Section 13:32-4.2 - Requirement of identification card

(a) At the time of the biennial renewal of the license, the Board shall furnish a wallet size identification card to every licensed master plumber. The card shall be used exclusively by the licensed master plumber in the conduct of his or her practice. A licensed master plumber is required to present the identification card upon request when applying for plumbing permits.

(b) Use of an identification card by any person, other than the licensed master plumber to whom the identification card is issued or by the agent authorized to act on behalf of the licensed master plumber, shall be deemed to be the use or employment of dishonesty, fraud, deception, misrepresentation or false pretense. Such conduct shall be unlawful and may be grounds for the suspension or revocation of the license of the unauthorized user if he or she is already licensed by the Board. With respect to an unlicensed user, such conduct shall be grounds for the refusal to issue a State license in the future.

(c) A licensed master plumber who willfully or negligently allows an unlicensed or unauthorized person to use his or her identification card shall be deemed to have engaged in occupational misconduct and shall be subject to such penalties and sanctions as shall be imposed by the Board pursuant to authority granted by N.J.S.A. 45:14C-1 and 45:1-14 et seq.
