Pursuant to 24 Del.C. §1806(a)(2), the Delaware Board of Plumbing, Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Examiners has the authority to promulgate rules and regulations that carry out the objectives of Chapter 18 of Title 24.
The proposed addition of subsection 3.1.2.2.3 clarifies the testing required to qualify for a master HVACR license restricted. Amendments proposed to section 5.0 provide the Board with a process to audit licensees for completion of continuing education, which is required beginning with license renewal in 2026, and clarify requirements for continuing education. The other proposed amendments reflect technical and style changes consistent with the Delaware Administrative Code Drafting and Style Manual.
These proposed amendments were published on page 208a of the September 1, 2024 issue of the Delaware Register of Regulations (28 DE Reg. 208a (9/1/24)). The Board planned to hold a hearing on the proposed regulation changes on October 8, 2024, at 8:30 a.m., but the hearing was cancelled. As a result, the Board will now hold a public hearing on January 14, 2025 in the second-floor conference room A of the Cannon Building, 861 Silver Lake Boulevard, Dover, Delaware.
