A. The State Fire Marshal, on recommendation of the Fire

Extinguisher Industry Committee, may suspend any license, upon the

conviction of any individual named on the license or on the

application for license of a felony, for a period not to exceed

thirty (30) days pending a full investigation by the Committee. The

investigation shall be initiated within the thirty-day period of

suspension. A final determination by the Committee shall result in

either removal of the suspension or such sanction as the State Fire

Marshal considers appropriate, as provided by the Fire Extinguisher

Licensing Act.

B. The State Fire Marshal may revoke or suspend any license,

reprimand any licensee or deny any application for license or

renewal if, in the judgment of the Committee:

1. The applicant or licensee has violated any provision of the

Fire Extinguisher Licensing Act or any rule promulgated under the

Fire Extinguisher Licensing Act;

2. The applicant or licensee has practiced fraud, deceit, or

misrepresentation;

3. The applicant or licensee has made a material misstatement

in any information required by the State Fire Marshal Commission; or

4. The applicant or licensee has demonstrated incompetence or

untrustworthiness in his or her actions.

C. The Committee shall, before final action under subsection B

of this section, provide thirty (30) days of written notice to the

applicant or licensee involved in the action intended and give

sufficient opportunity for the person to request a hearing before

the Committee and the State Fire Marshal and to be represented by an

attorney. A hearing shall be scheduled by the Committee upon

request by the applicant or licensee.

D. In the event the State Fire Marshal denies the application

for, or revokes or suspends, any license or imposes any reprimand, a

record of such action shall be in writing and officially signed by

the State Fire Marshal. The original copy shall be filed with the

State Fire Marshal Commission and a copy mailed to the affected

applicant or licensee within two (2) days of the final action taken

by the State Fire Marshal.

E. Notice of the suspension or revocation of any license by the

State Fire Marshal shall be sent by the Committee to law enforcement

agencies and fire departments in the principal areas of operation of

the licensee.

F. A suspended license shall be subject to expiration and may

be renewed as provided by the Fire Extinguisher Licensing Act,

regardless of suspension; provided, the renewal shall not remove the

suspension.

G. A revoked license terminates on the date of revocation and

cannot be reinstated; provided, the State Fire Marshal may reverse

the revocation action. Any licensee whose license is revoked shall

apply for a new license and meet all requirements for a license as

stated in the Fire Extinguisher Licensing Act prior to engaging in

any fire extinguisher industry business activities. The Committee

and the State Fire Marshal shall take action on the new application

and may require additional safeguards against such acts by the

applicant as may have been the cause of the revocation of the prior

license.
