(b) After the Board notifies an applicant for licensure that all requirements are satisfied, the applicant shall obtain and purchase a seal of the design stipulated in subsection (a) of this section of the rules in order to complete his licensure. The Board or its designee(s) will provide a list of vendors who can manufacture and provide seals.
(c) Within ninety (90) calendar days from the date of notification of licensure, the applicant shall submit, on a form provided by the Board, an impression or stamp of the seal he has obtained, superimposed over an original signature. Failure to provide this impression or stamp is a violation of W.S. 33-41-115(b). Upon approval of the seal impression or stamp, a licensee will be sent a license.

Prior to sealing any work, a licensee shall have his seal approved by the Board.
(d) An imprint of the licensee's valid seal shall appear on the cover page of all original geologic reports or other geologic documents in volume form as well as on each and every sheet of unbound geologic drawings, cross sections, or maps prepared by or under the responsible charge or direct supervision of the licensee, or reviewed in a thorough and technical manner by the licensee, whenever these documents are relevant to public welfare or the safeguard of life, health, property and the environment, pursuant to W.S. W.S. 33-41-102(a)(viii). An imprint of the licensee's seal shall be superimposed over his signature and the date signed. Computer generated seals are acceptable if accompanied by an original signature of the licensee and date as long as the computer generated seal complies with the requirements of subsection 2(a) above.
(e) Original work in an electronic format with a computer generated seal may be submitted in digital format or transmitted via electronic mail (e-mail) as follows:
(f) Any work sealed and signed by a licensee shall have been prepared by the licensee, thoroughly and technically reviewed by the licensee, or prepared by someone under the responsible charge or direct supervision of the licensee. After-the-fact ratification of a document by signing, dating, and sealing [as described in Section 2(d) above], when the underlying work was not performed by or under the responsible charge and supervision of the licensee, is only permissible following thorough and technical review by that licensee.
(g) A licensee whose license is expired shall not use their seal on any work until the license is reinstated.
(h) If a replacement or additional seal is required, the licensee shall submit an impression or stamp of the new seal to the Board for its approval, pursuant to subsection (c) of this section of the rules. The impression or stamp of the new seal shall be accompanied by a statement by the licensee made under oath, stipulating the reason for the seal's duplication.
(i) After notifying the Board of a name change as required in Chapter 3, Section 3 of these rules, a licensee shall obtain a new seal and submit an impression or stamp of the new seal to the Board for its approval, pursuant to subsection (c) of this section of the rules within ninety (90) calendar days after the name change.
