Driller trainee

(a) Driller trainees may perform the work for which they are being trained, but only in the presence and under the supervision of a properly registered contractor driller. Nothing in chapter 482 of the Connecticut General Statutes shall be construed to prohibit the employment of one driller trainee by a registered contractor and an additional driller trainee or apprentice for each person employed by a contractor who holds a drilling registration for such work. (b) Driller trainees, under the supervision of a registered contractor or the holder of a driller registration, may do minimal cleaning work not in the presence of such supervising contractor or driller.
