Prequalification Denial, Suspension or Revocation

Section 820.540  Prequalification Denial, Suspension or Revocation a)         The Department has the authority to deny the renewal of, suspend or revoke any currently prequalified architect, professional engineer or swimming facility contractor who has been adjudicated to have violated the Act or this Part. 1)         Denial will be based on the failure to comply with the requirements outlined in Section 820.520 or Section 820.530. 2)         Suspension will be based on the point system outlined in Appendix B.Table K. An accumulated score of 40-74 points shall result in suspension of prequalification status for a period of 30 days. The prequalified person shall complete a Department swimming facility prequalification training class to be reinstated from a suspension. 3)         Revocation will be based on the point system outlined in Appendix B.Table K. A score of 75 or above shall result in revocation of prequalified status. The prequalified person may not submit a new prequalification application within one year after prequalification is revoked. 4)         When a prequalified person knowingly violates this Part or the Act or, in a willful and wanton manner, disregards this Part, the Department may take such action as necessary, including suspending and revoking the prequalification, to prevent harm to the public. b)         The prequalified architect, professional engineer or contractor may choose to subcontract the project or portions of the project; however, the prequalified person is fully responsible for the actions of its subcontractors on the work performed pursuant to Department-issued permits.
