B. If an application is deemed complete and approved by the Commission, the Commission shall issue to the applicant an initial or renewal certificate for the specified discipline within thirty (30) days after receipt of the complete application. C. The Commission may deny an application for certification if the Commission determines that the applicant: (1) Has not complied with all of the provisions of these regulations and with all other applicable federal, State and local statutes and regulations; or (2) Submits inaccurate or falsified information within an application; or (3) Fails to submit the necessary additional information after receiving notice from the Commission as outlined in Paragraph A above.
