Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 10, October 1, 2024

Section 419-400-0290 - Licensing Umbrella Rules: Temporary, Inactive, and Amended Licenses

(1) Temporary license.

(a) The Department may issue a temporary license when the application by a child-caring agency for a license is approved, and the child-caring agency does not hold a current, valid license. A temporary license is valid for a period not to exceed six months. Use of a temporary license allows the licensee to start providing services authorized by the temporary license. To obtain a temporary license, a child-caring agency must meet all requirements of the rules in OAR chapter 419, division 400 except those that can be met only while providing services.

(b) Once a child-caring agency with a temporary license begins providing services, the licensee must request an inspection by the Department for the purpose of verifying its compliance with the rules in OAR chapter 419, division 400. Upon verification, the Department will issue a license valid for two years beginning from the date of the temporary license, as described in OAR 419-400-0220.

(2) Inactive license.

(a) A child-caring agency is considered to have an inactive license if the child-caring agency discontinues or fails to provide a service for which the child-caring agency is licensed for a period of 180 days.

(b) A child-caring agency no longer providing services for which it is licensed must immediately inform a Department licensing coordinator.

(c) In order to reactivate an inactive license, a child-caring agency must request an inspection by the Department for the purpose of verifying its compliance with all applicable Department rules. The child-caring agency may not resume providing services until the Department has verified in writing that the child-caring agency is in compliance with all applicable Department rules and reinstated the child-caring agency to active status.

(3) Amended license.

(a) The Department may require additional documentation of a licensee if the Department is considering the amendment of a license.

(b) The Department may issue an amended license to a licensee that has an inactive facility or program, but retains another facility or program with an active license.

(c) The Department may issue an amended license upon written request of the licensee to accommodate changes in the factors upon which an existing license is based.

(4) The term of a temporary, inactive, or amended license is not extended by any action described in this rule.
