§34-37-10. Temporary certificate.

The board may issue a temporary revocable certificate for journeyman classification one time only to any person pending such person's examination for a certificate, if such person furnishes satisfactory proof that he or she holds a license or certificate to practice as a journeyman plumber or gas fitter in any state wherein plumbers and gas fitters are required to meet prescribed standards before engaging in the trade of journeyman plumber or gas fitter. Any such temporary certificate during the effective period thereof shall have the force and effect of an annual certificate; but no such temporary certificate shall be effective for a period of more than 90 days from the issuance thereof, or until the next examination, whichever is longer. Prior to receiving any such temporary certificate, the applicant therefor shall be required to pay to the board one half of the annual certificate fee provided for journeyman plumber or gas fitter, as the case may be. Additional test dates for master plumber and master gas fitter examinations may be given at the discretion of the board.
