Section 1800.595  Temporary Identification Badge

The Administrator may issue a temporary identification badge to an applicant for a terminal handler, technician, or sales agent and broker license. The holder of a temporary identification badge of any type may perform duties as a holder of a license of the same type. The holder of a temporary identification badge is subject to the same duties and obligations as a holder of a license of the same type.

a)         To qualify for a temporary identification badge, an applicant must have already submitted an application that has been deemed complete by the Administrator, including fingerprints and a photograph.

b)         In determining whether to grant a temporary identification badge, the Administrator shall consider any relevant factor, including but not limited to:

1)         Facts that suggest an applicant may not be suitable for licensure under the Act and this Part; and

2)         Any past or pending disciplinary action against the applicant in any gaming jurisdiction.

c)         Temporary identification badges are valid for one year from the date of the application unless rescinded or extended by the Administrator.

d)         A temporary identification badge is not transferable and upon rescission must be returned by the applicant to the Board within 30 days, or if employed by a licensed terminal operator, to that terminal operator. A licensed terminal operator shall return any rescinded badge to the Board within 21 days of receipt of that badge.

e)         The Administrator may rescind a temporary identification badge at any time for any just cause, including, but not limited to, the factors identified in Sections 1800.310 and 1800.420, and in subsection (b) of this Section.

f)         Rescission of a temporary identification badge by the Administrator is not a final ruling on the merits of an application.

g)         A temporary identification badge shall be rescinded upon issuance of a Notice of Denial of Application.
