What action is required when a licensee-in-charge loses their license?

When a licensee-in-charge loses their license, it is crucial to notify the relevant regulatory authority in writing within a specified timeframe, typically 10 days. This prompt notification is important to inform the governing body about the situation and potentially allow for corrective measures or discussions on the status of the license. The requirement for timely notification emphasizes transparency and accountability in the operations of licensed professionals, ensuring that the licensing authority is kept informed of any changes that may affect compliance with state regulations.

In contrast, filing a complaint, attending a hearing, or completing a new application would generally not be the immediate required actions following the loss of a license. These options may pertain to different processes or responses to issues regarding licensing, but they do not address the immediate obligation of notifying the licensing authority about the license loss. Thus, the primary responsibility in this scenario is to formally communicate the loss of the license within the designated period.
