Bill Summary

An Act relating to professions and occupations; amending 59 O.S. 2021, Sections 1003, 1005, and 1009, which relate to definitions, examinations, and duration of plumbing licenses; modifying, adding and deleting definitions; updating statutory references; requiring certain score on plumbing examination; establishing certain qualifications for plumbing examinations; establishing certain license time period; providing for codification; and providing an effective date.

AI Summary

This bill modifies Oklahoma's plumbing license laws by updating definitions, establishing new examination requirements, and clarifying license qualifications and renewal procedures. Key changes include defining a "residential journeyman plumber" who can work on one- or two-family dwellings, requiring a minimum score of seventy percent on plumbing examinations, and setting specific experience requirements for both journeyman and plumbing contractor licenses, such as three years of experience for journeymen and an additional year for contractors. The bill also clarifies that plumbing contractor licenses require the same qualifications as journeyman licenses plus an extra year of experience, and it outlines detailed experience and educational requirements for residential journeyman plumber applicants, including options for vocational training or military service. License renewal procedures are also adjusted, with licenses now expiring on the licensee's birthday and requiring proof of continuing education, and provisions are made for renewing licenses that expire while a holder is in military service.
