Notice
of license expiration; rules; effect of failure to comply with criteria for
continuing education; waiver.
(1) A license to practice veterinary medicine or to act as a veterinary
technician expires on December 31 or on such date as may be specified by rule
of the Oregon State Veterinary Medical Examining Board. The board shall give
each person holding a license a notice of pending expiration at least 60 days
before the license expires. This notice shall be sufficient if mailed to the
last address filed with the board by the license holder. Appropriate forms for
the presentation of evidence of professional activity shall be mailed with the
notice of expiration.
(2) The board
shall determine whether the professional educational activity participated in
by each applicant for license renewal is within the criteria established under
ORS 686.410. The board may excuse any applicant for license renewal from the
professional educational activity requirement when the applicant makes a
showing satisfactory to the board of exceptional circumstances which have
prevented compliance.
(3) Any person
may renew a license that has expired for failure to comply with ORS 686.410 (1)
by making written application for license renewal, presenting evidence of
professional educational activity equivalent to that which would have been
required had the license been renewed annually, and paying the current license
renewal fee plus the delinquent fee set by the board. [1979 c.743 §4; 1997
c.241 §3; 2003 c.178 §7; 2007 c.768 §49]
