ODEQ Raising Operator & Laboratory Licensing Fees

    The ODEQ is proposing to raise the Operator and Laboratory Certification and    Licensing Fees beginning 01 July 2008.  The new proposed rules can be found at the ODEQ web at:

http://www.deq.state.ok.us./WQDnew/wwwac/proposed_rules/dec2007_710Rule.pdf

Please go to the above site to view all the new fees.

ODEQ Enforcing the "3-Week" Rule on Exam Applications

    Please be advised that ODEQ is enforcing their "3-Week" Ruling on getting your Exam Application and Documentation in a minimum of 3 weeks BEFORE you take the State Certification Examinations.  You can get it in earlier than that, but no later than three (3) weeks before the exam dates.

    This also means, you will also need to notify the training institution about your enrollment into a class at least 3 - 4 weeks BEFORE the class dates.  And due to some training facilities filling up rather quickly, notifying the training institutions 2 - 3 months ahead of time would be greatly advisable.

    Please also be aware that sending in your exam application to the state does NOT mean you are enrolled in a class.  The exam application just notifies ODEQ that you want to take an Exam.  You MUST still notify the Training Institution to make you Class Enrollments and to obtain the class number for the exam application.

New ODEQ Procedure (and Affidavit)
For Obtaining Individual Licenses and Certifications

Click Here    For Explanation

Click Here    For New Documentations

Click Here    For Documents and Exam Application

ALL (New and Existing) Operators will need to supply these documents, either at the time of taking an exam or at the time of renewal, which ever comes first.

Operators will NOT be allowed to renew or take an examination without these documents on file.

The Birth Certificate MUST BE a the Original Certified Birth Certificate - NOT a Copy of it.

If you want, or need, your Birth Certificate back, please send a self address stamped envelope and a note to ODEQ with the documents requesting the birth certificate be sent back to you.  ODEQ will make a copy of it and send it back to you, but it HAS TO BE THE ORIGINAL CERTIFIED BIRTH CERTIFICATE.

There is usually a 2 - 3 week turn around time to order a new Certified Birth Certificate from the state agencies.

Due to over 7000 Operators needing to do this, the time it takes to get your Birth Certificate back may take longer.

Do NOT wait until June to send the documents in to the ODEQ.  It would be impossible for ODEQ to process all 7000 + operator documentation in June.

So beat the rush and confusion and do it today.

Oklahoma Driver License Renewals

DO NOT LET YOUR CURRENT OKLAHOMA DRIVER'S LICENSE EXPIRE.

If your driver’s license is expired, even one day, we cannot renew it. You must first go to a driver’s license examiner.  At the examiner’s office you must present a STATE issued birth certificate or a US Passport.  If you have had your name changed, (i.e. married or divorced or both) you must also provide legal documentation (marriage license, divorce decree, etc) attesting to that fact.  They may also require you to take the written & driving exams over again.  So, be prepared to spend a half to full day at the examiner's office.
