An applicant for licensure as a petroleum release assessor or remediator must pass the petroleum release examination, which is prepared and scored by the board. The examination is an open-book electronic examination over South Dakota procedures and rules pertaining to petroleum releases. Each applicant must complete the examination within thirty calendar days of the date of submission of the applicant's licensure application.
An applicant may apply for admission to the examination upon satisfaction of the petroleum release education and experience requirements.
An applicant who fails the petroleum release examination may retake the examination two times. If an applicant fails the examination three times, the applicant may submit only one new application for admission to the examination per calendar year thereafter. The board may review an applicant who fails the examination three times and may require additional qualifying education or experience to grant licensure.
