Section 475:10-1-9 - [Effective until 9/14/2025] Application for registration pursuant to Title 63 Okl. St.Ann Section 2-302(a) Any person or entity who is required to be registered and who is not so registered may apply for registration at any time unless otherwise provided in this Title. No person or entity required to be registered shall engage in any activity for which registration is required until the application for registration is granted and a Certificate of Registration is issued by the Director to such person or entity.(b) After any person or entity is first registered, the person or entity shall thereafter be required to be registered no later than the first day of November of each year.(c) Any person or entity who fails to register shall be in violation of the Uniform Controlled Dangerous Substances Act and subject to penalties as provided therein.(d) New applications for registration of new principal places of business and new registration requests received after July 1st of each year will, if accepted for registration, be registered for the forthcoming registration period and, therefore, will not be required to pay the registration fee for the remaining four (4) months of the registration period in which the application is made.(e) Renewal applications shall open on July 1st of each year. Renewal applications shall be considered timely if submitted by September 1st of each year. Registrations not renewed by December 31st of the expiration year shall be ineligible for renewal and shall require a new registration upon return to the Bureau. With notice provided prior to expiration, the Director may waive the requirement of a new registration.(1) Registrations shall expire on October 31st of each year. Applicants that fail to submit a timely renewal application shall cease all operations and activities involving controlled dangerous substances on or before the expiration date, including possession of controlled dangerous substances, until such time as the applicant is once again registered. Applicants that submit a late renewal shall remain inactive until the application is finally decided by the Director.(2) Administrative fines shall begin accumulating immediately upon expiration of the registration where the registrant continues to engage in operations and activities with controlled dangerous substances in addition to being subject to criminal violations of the Uniform Controlled Dangerous Substances Act.(f) New applications with substantive changes to an existing registration are deemed new registrations and shall not extend any authority conferred by the original registration beyond the expiration date of the original registration to the original registrant. A registrant may only continue authorized activities beyond the expiration date of the registration if a renewal application was timely submitted and the renewal application submitted remains pending and has not been rejected, denied, or otherwise withdrawn.(g) Registrants subject to administrative action shall be required to timely submit the renewal fee each year. Failure to timely submit the required renewal fee shall result in the administrative action being rendered moot on September 1st with the expiration of the registration on October 31st. The registrant shall not be permitted to apply for registration again as a new applicant until after October 31st of the following year.(h) Any registrant or applicant subject to administrative action that is lawfully assessed an administrative fine or penalty, to include beneficial owners thereof, shall have thirty (30) days to pay such fine or penalty following the conclusion of proceedings. Failure to satisfy such fine or penalty in full shall result in the suspension of registration for the remaining period if not otherwise revoked or annulled. The registrant or applicant shall be ineligible to hold registration again until such fines or penalties are satisfied in full. The Director may extend the deadline for payment upon good cause shown.Okla. Admin. Code § 475:10-1-9
