Renewal of Operator Permit

Renewal of Operator Permit Prior to the expiration of a valid Permit to Conduct Breath Analysis (Form IP-51E), the operator must renew his permit in order to continue to conduct chemical tests of an individual’s breath to determine alcohol level. The permit renewal is issued by the Implied Consent Section of the Mississippi Crime Laboratory or designee. If an operator fails to renew the Permit to Conduct Breath Analysis before the expiration date, the Permit is no longer valid. Before the operator can be reissued a Permit to Conduct Breath Analysis and resume conducting breath analysis, he must demonstrate his ability to perform a breath test on the Intoxilyzer 8000 to the Operator Trainer of the Implied Consent Section of the Mississippi Crime Laboratory or designee. If this is not done within six (6) months of the expiration of the Permit to Conduct Breath Analysis, the operator must complete the training program for the Intoxilyzer 8000 operator certification as described in the Operator Training section of this document.
