Section 451.4 - Temporary and permanent boating safety certificate

(a) Temporary certificate. The instructor issues the temporary boating safety certificate directly to a student who successfully completes the course requirements and the instructor notifies the agency. The temporary certificate is valid for 90 days. The instructor shall not issue more than one temporary certificate nor issue a replacement certificate to a student.

(b) Permanent certificate. The agency issues the permanent boating safety certificate as follows:

(1) adult operator. After receiving the temporary certificate the adult operator (age 18 or over) must follow the directions on the student record form, apply to the agency for a permanent boating safety certificate, and pay the $10 fee (by credit card, check or money order) to the agency. After receiving the instructor's properly completed forms and the adult operator's properly completed form and fee, the agency may issue the boating safety certificate directly to the operator by regular mail; or

(2) youth operator (at least age 10 but less than age 18). After receiving the instructor's properly-completed forms, the agency may issue the permanent boating safety certificate directly to the youth operator by regular mail;

(3) replacement boating safety certificate and fee. In the event the original boating safety certificate is lost, mutilated or destroyed an operator must apply to the agency's Marine Services Bureau for a replacement boating safety certificate and pay the agency a $10 processing fee (by credit card, check or money order). The agency may issue the replacement directly to the operator by regular mail.
