23 Sec. 25. Restrictions and limitations. No person shall,

25 manner hold himself or herself out to the public as a
26 licensed professional geologist; (ii) attach the title
-4- LRB9003437DPmbam01
1 "Licensed Professional Geologist" to his or her name; or

4 professional geology.
5 Individuals practicing geology in Illinois as of the

8 adopted rules implementing this Act. To continue practicing
9 geology after the adoption of rules, individuals shall apply

11 rules. If an application is received during the 180-day
12 period, the individual may continue to practice until the

14 application is not filed within the 180-day period, the
15 individual must cease the practice of geology at the
16 conclusion of the 180-day period and until the Department
17 acts to grant a license to the individual.

32 Sec. 65. Expiration and renewal of license. The
-5- LRB9003437DPmbam01
1 expiration date and renewal period for each license shall be
2 set by rule. A professional geologist whose license has
3 expired may reinstate his or her license at any time within 5
4 years after the expiration thereof, by making a renewal
5 application and by paying the required fee. However, any
6 professional geologist whose license expired while he or she
7 was (i) on active duty with the Armed Forces of the United
8 States or called into service or training by the State
9 militia or (ii) in training or education under the
10 supervision of the United States preliminary to induction
11 into the military service, may have his professional
12 geologist license renewed, reinstated, or restored without
13 paying any lapsed renewal fees if within 2 years after
14 termination of the service, training, or education the
15 professional geologist furnishes the Department with
16 satisfactory evidence of service, training, or education and
17 it has been terminated under honorable conditions.
18 Any professional geologist whose license has expired for
19 more than 5 years may have it restored by making application
20 to the Department, paying the required fee, and filing
21 acceptable proof of fitness to have the license restored. The
22 proof may include sworn evidence certifying active practice
23 in another jurisdiction. If the geologist has not practiced
24 for 5 years or more, the Board shall determine by an
25 evaluation program established by rule, whether that
26 individual is fit to resume active status and may require the
27 professional geologist to complete a period of evaluated
28 professional clinical experience and may require successful
29 completion of an examination.
30 The Department may refuse to issue or may suspend the
31 license of any person who fails to file a return, or to pay
32 the tax, penalty or interest shown in a filed return, or to
33 pay any final assessment of tax, penalty, or interest, as
34 required by any tax Act administered by the Illinois
-6- LRB9003437DPmbam01
1 Department of Revenue, until such time as the requirements of
2 any such tax Act are satisfied.
