APPLICATOR EXPIRATION DATES – NEW LEGISLATION
With the passing of Senate Bill (SB)1244, effective January 1, 2015, all applicator licenses now expire on June 30 on the third year from the date of issuance. Previously, applicators renewed every three years on the same date their license was issued. This change is to allow the licensing renewal of applicators to coincide with field reps and operators.
During this transition, current applicator licenses will have their renewal dates extended from their current date of renewal to the following June 30. New expiration dates only apply for licenses with expiration dates after January 1, 2015. Click HERE to see the official announcement.
