In order to assure financial stability and professional competence and performance of licensees, all licensees, without exception, are required to be bonded for any work performed under the license. Minimum amounts for required bonds shall be established by the board and evidence of bond shall be provided to the board before any license will be issued. In no event may the minimum required bond amounts set by the board be less than fifteen thousand dollars ($15,000) for a basic level license, a pumper license, a portable toilet license, or a manufacturer's license, and thirty thousand dollars ($30,000) for an advanced level license. Each active licensee shall maintain a current bond for each license he or she holds. The executive director shall immediately suspend any active license without a current bond on file. The executive director shall reinstate the license once a reinstatement fee is paid by the licensee and the bond is reactivated or replaced. In the event the licensee contends his or her license has been unjustly suspended, the licensee may request a hearing and the executive director shall hold a hearing within 10 business days of the request.
