ORDER

4400 Delaware Manufactured Home Installation Board

The Delaware Manufactured Home Installation Board (“the Board”) was established to protect the general public from unsafe practices and from occupational practices which tend to reduce competition or fix the price of services rendered by the profession under its purview. The Board was further established to maintain minimum standards of practitioner competence in the delivery of services to the public. The Board is authorized, by 24 Del.C. §4416(b)(1), to make, adopt, amend and repeal regulations as necessary to effectuate those objectives.

Pursuant to 24 Del.C. §4416(b)(1), the Board has proposed several revisions to its rules. A number of the proposed revisions implement recent amendments to the Board’s licensing law, Chapter 44 of Title 24 of the Delaware Code. Specifically, Rule 3.1.4 is amended to clarify that either the applicant, or the applicant’s employer, must hold a surety bond or an irrevocable letter of credit in an amount equal to or greater than $10,000 and that original documentation must be submitted to the Board by the provider of the bond or letter of credit. Rule 3.1.5 is amended to clarify that either the applicant or the applicant’s employer must carry liability insurance in an amount equal to or greater than $100,000 and that a notarized certificate of insurance must be submitted to the Board by the insurance carrier. Rule 12.0 is revised to provide that the designation to be displayed on work vehicles may include the abbreviation “Lic. Mfd. Home Installer” and that the designation must be displayed in not less than two inch, rather than three inch, letters and numbers.

Finally, a new Rule 8.5.3 is added to give the Board the express authority to impose the full range of available sanctions on licensees who are found to be in violation of the CE requirements.

Pursuant to 29 Del.C. §10115, notice of the public hearing and a copy of the proposed regulatory changes were published in the Delaware Register of Regulations, Volume 13, Issue 6 on December 1, 2009.

Summary of the Evidence and Information Submitted

A public hearing on the proposed rule revisions was held on January 11, 2010. No written comment was submitted. Further, there was no public comment.

Findings of Fact

The Board carefully reviewed and considered the proposed rule revisions.

As noted herein, Rules 3.1.4, 3.1.5 and 12.0 are revised to implement changes to the Board’s licensing law. A new Rule 8.5.3 gives the Board express authority to sanction licensees who do not meet the continuing education requirements.

The Board concluded that the proposed amendments will serve to protect the public from unsafe practices and enhance practitioner competence.

Therefore, the Board finds that adopting the amended rules and regulations as proposed is in the best interests of the citizens of the State of Delaware and is necessary to protect the health and safety of the general public.

Decision and Effective Date

The Board hereby adopts the proposed amendments to the rules and regulations to be effective 10 days following final publication of this Order in the Register of Regulations.

Text and Citation

The text of the revised rules and regulations remains as published in the Delaware Register of Regulations, Volume 13, Issue 6 on December 1, 2009.

6.1 The biennial licenses and certificates granted by the Board shall lapse on September 30th of each even numbered year beginning in 2008, or on such other date as is specified by the Division of Professional Regulation. It is the responsibility of the licensee to file a renewal application with the Board. The failure of the Board to notify a licensee or certificate holder of the expiration date does not in any way relieve the licensee of the requirements of filing a renewal application with the Board. License and certificate renewal may be accomplished online at the Division of Professional Regulation's website.

6.2 Each applicant for renewal must retain proof of completing the continuing education requirements. Extra continuing education hours do not carry over to the next licensing or certification period. Renewal applications will be audited by the Board for compliance with the continuing education requirements.

6.3 A license or certificate is lapsed when a licensee has failed to either complete the requirements for renewal or obtain permission for inactive status. A licensee or certificate holder may activate a lapsed license or certificate within one year of the date the renewal application was due by meeting all renewal requirements and paying an additional fee set by the Division of Professional Regulation.

6.4 An individual whose license or certificate has lapsed for more than one year must reapply as a new applicant. The applicant must take the examination required by §4416(b)(3) and achieve a passing score unless he or she previously passed an approved licensure test that covered the applicable law and standards in effect at the time of the new application.

7.1 A licensee or certificate holder with a valid license may request in writing to be placed on inactive status. Inactive status can be effective for up to two years.

7.2 Each inactive license and certificate shall expire at the end of the biennial licensing and certificate period applicable to active licensees, which is September 30 of even-numbered years beginning in 2008. An inactive license or certificate may be renewed for two years by application to the Division upon proof of 10 hours of continuing education in the past two years.

7.3 An inactive license may be reactivated by the Board upon written request on a form designated by the Board, proof of insurance and bond, proof that the licensee has completed the requisite continuing education, and payment of a prorated fee to be computed by the Division of Professional Regulation.

7.4 An inactive certificate may be reactivated by the Board upon written request on a form designated by the Board, proof of completion of the requisite continuing education, and payment of a prorated fee to be computed by the Division of Professional Regulation.

7.5 A licensee or certificate holder is not authorized to work as a licensed manufactured home installer or certified manufactured home installation inspector, respectively, in this State during the period of inactive status.

8.1 Licensees and certificate holders shall complete 10 hours of approved CE by September 30 of each biennial renewal period.

8.1.1 This requirement is prorated for license or certificate holders during their initial licensing period as follows:

8.1.1.1 A person licensed less than one year does not need to complete CE at the first renewal.

8.1.1.2 A person licensed one year but less than two years must submit 5 CE hours at the first renewal.

8.1.2 An "hour" for purposes of continuing education credit shall mean fifty (50) minutes of instruction or participation in an appropriate course or program. Meals and breaks shall be excluded from credit.

8.2 The Board may consider a waiver of CE requirements or acceptance of partial fulfillment based on the Board's review of a written request with supporting documentation of hardship.

8.3 Courses must be approved by the Board in order to qualify as CE. Approved courses appear on the website of the Division of Professional Regulation.

8.3.1 Courses shall be designed to maintain and enhance the knowledge and skills of licensees related to the installation of manufactured housing.

8.3.2 Course providers, licensees and certificate holders may request Board approval of courses at any time by submitting a written request to the Board and including a course outline with the number of classroom hours and the curriculum vitae or resume of the instructor.

8.3.3 Course providers, licensees and certificate holders seeking pre-approval should submit the request a sufficient amount of time in advance of the CE course to permit the Board to consider the request at a regularly-scheduled Board meeting.

8.4 Proof of continuing education is satisfied with an attestation by the licensee that he or she has satisfied the requirements of Rule 8.0.

8.4.1 Attestation may be completed electronically if the renewal is accomplished online. Alternatively, licensees and certificate holders may submit the attestation in paper form on forms approved by the Board.

8.4.2 Licensees and certificate holders selected for random audit will be required to supplement the attestation with attendance verification pursuant to Rule 8.5.

8.4.3 Approval of CE automatically expires on September 30, 2008 and every two years thereafter on each September 30. A sponsor must reapply for approval as provided in Rule 8.3.

8.5 Random audits will be performed by the Board to ensure compliance with the license and certificate requirements. Licensees and certificate holders selected for the random audit shall submit verification that they maintain the required bond and liability insurance, verification of required employment status, and the completion of the required CE, as applicable and any other information required by the Board to confirm their continued eligibility for the license or certificate.

8.5.1 In a renewal year, the Board will notify licensees and certificate holders within sixty (60) days after September 30 that they have been selected for audit.

8.5.3 The Board shall review all documentation submitted by licensees pursuant to the CE audit. If the Board determines that the licensee has met the CE requirements, his or her license shall remain in effect. If the Board determines that the licensee has not met the CE requirements, the licensee shall be notified and a hearing may be held pursuant to the Administrative Procedures Act. The hearing will be conducted to determine if there are any extenuating circumstances justifying the noncompliance with the CE requirements. Unjustified noncompliance with the CE requirements set forth in these rules and regulations shall constitute a violation of 24 Del.C. §4441(a) and the licensee may be subject to one or more of the disciplinary sanctions set forth in 24 Del.C. §4441.

9.1 Manufactured homes shall be installed in accord with Section 4421(b).

9.2 Footers. Manufactured homes installed in this State shall be installed on piles or concrete footers. Concrete footers shall consist of a minimum of 3000 psi concrete and shall be a minimum of 24 inches in diameter, at least eight (8) inches thick and set two (2) feet deep from final grade where soil conditions permit. Where the regulations of the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the manufacturer's installation instructions or manual, NCSB/ANSI code or the set of plans designed for the specific manufactured home under the seal of a registered professional engineer, as applicable under Section 4421(b), require more stringent standards, those standards shall apply.

This initial evaluation and screen shall take place within 30 days following notification to the professional by the participating Board president or that president's designate(s).

15.4 A regulated professional with chemical dependency or impairment due to addiction to drugs or alcohol may enter into the Voluntary Treatment Option and continue to practice, subject to any limitations on practice the participating Board president or that president's designate or designates or the Director of the Division of Professional Regulation or his/her designate may, in consultation with the treating professional, deem necessary, only if such action will not endanger the public health, welfare or safety, and the regulated professional enters into an agreement with the Director of Professional Regulation or his/her designate and the president of the participating Board or that president's designate for a treatment plan and progresses satisfactorily in such treatment program and complies with all terms of that agreement. Treatment programs may be operated by professional Committees and Associations or other similar professional groups with the approval of the Director of Professional Regulation and the president of the participating Board.

15.5 Failure to cooperate fully with the participating Board president or that president's designate or designates or the Director of the Division of Professional Regulation or his/her designate in regard to the Voluntary Treatment Option or to comply with their requests for evaluations and screens may disqualify the regulated professional from the provisions of the Voluntary Treatment Option, and the participating Board president or that president's designate or designates shall cause to be activated an immediate investigation and institution of disciplinary proceedings, if appropriate, as outlined in subsection (h) of this section.

15.6.3 Consent of the regulated professional, in accordance with applicable law, to the release of any treatment information from anyone within the approved treatment program.

15.6.4 Agreement by the regulated professional to be personally responsible for all costs and charges associated with the Voluntary Treatment Option and treatment program(s). In addition, the Division of Professional Regulation may assess a fee to be paid by the regulated professional to cover administrative costs associated with the Voluntary Treatment Option. The amount of the fee imposed under this subparagraph shall approximate and reasonably reflect the costs necessary to defray the expenses of the participating Board, as well as the proportional expenses incurred by the Division of Professional Regulation in its services on behalf of the Board in addition to the administrative costs associated with the Voluntary Treatment Option.

15.6.5 Agreement by the regulated professional that failure to satisfactorily progress in such treatment program shall be reported to the participating Board's president or his/her designate or designates or to the Director of the Division of Professional Regulation or his/ her designate by the treating professional who shall be immune from any liability for such reporting made in good faith and without malice.

15.6.6 Compliance by the regulated professional with any terms or restrictions placed on professional practice as outlined in the agreement under the Voluntary Treatment Option.

15.7 The regulated professional's records of participation in the Voluntary Treatment Option will not reflect disciplinary action and shall not be considered public records open to public inspection.

15.8 The participating Board's president, his/her designate or designates or the Director of the Division of Professional Regulation or his/her designate may, in consultation with the treating professional at any time during the Voluntary Treatment Option, restrict the practice of a chemically dependent or impaired professional if such action is deemed necessary to protect the public health, welfare or safety.

15.9 If practice is restricted, the regulated professional may apply for unrestricted licensure upon completion of the program.

15.10 Failure to enter into such agreement or to comply with the terms and make satisfactory progress in the treatment program shall disqualify the regulated professional from the provisions of the Voluntary Treatment Option, and the participating Board shall be notified and cause to be activated an immediate investigation and disciplinary proceedings as appropriate.
