New Jersey Statutes Title 52. State Government, Departments and Officers 52 § 27D-429

The certification required pursuant to section 15 of P.L.1993, c. 288 (C.52:27D-428) shall be for a period not to exceed two years and shall not be transferable. A business firm may apply for recertification during the 90-day period before the certification expiration date, or the 90-day period after the certification expiration date; except that if a business firm applies after the certification expiration date, the firm shall not perform any services for which certification is required until the certification is renewed. If a certification has expired for more than 90 days, the business firm is required to obtain a new certification.

A copy of the certification shall be conspicuously displayed for public review in the business office of a business firm engaged in the business of abating lead-based paint hazards or conducting lead evaluations. Additionally, the certification number shall be displayed on all business vehicles and at all lead abatement or lead evaluation jobs in progress.

A certification or recertification shall not be issued until a certification fee has been paid in full to the department. The commissioner shall establish application and certification fees by regulation pursuant to the “Administrative Procedure Act,” P.L.1968, c. 410 (C.52:14B-1 et seq.), in an amount sufficient to cover the costs to the department of administering and enforcing the provisions of sections 14 through 24 of P.L.1993, c. 288 (C.52:27D-427 through C.52:27D-437).
