Marin Builders Association ◆ WEEKLY BULLETIN ◆ Page 7
With the 2015 session of the California State Legislature set to commence in early January, the California Contractors State License Board is proposing to submit to their board their proposed legislative agenda. The following was presented to the CSLB’s Legislative Committee this week and will be formally approved at their December Board meeting in Berkeley. Once approved by the full board, the CSLB staff will work with some of my colleagues and me to find legislators willing to carry these bills. The bills will then be introduced between January and late March and then begin the legislative process.
1). Enforcement of Licensing Provisions Relevant Provisions: Business and Professions Code section 7011.4
Summary:This proposal will expand the authority of Enforcement Representatives (ERs) to issue a written notice to appear (NTA) for failure to secure workers’ compensation insurance.
Staff Comments: An NTA is a court order mandating an individual’s presence at a hearing, on a specified date, to answer to wrongdoings of misdemeanor crimes. Under existing law, ERs with the Contractors State License Board (CSLB) have the authority to issue a written
NTA.
This proposal would expand the jurisdiction of the Enforcement division to include ensuring payment of compensation that may become due to his or her employees. The proposed language does not reference a specific section of the law, but is similar to that in Labor Code (LC) section 3700.5, regarding workers’ compensation (WC) insurance requirements. According to the Enforcement division, under existing law, staff cannot add an LC section 3700.5 violation for failure to carry workers’ compensation to the NTA; therefore, staff must include this violation in a supplemental report along with the NTA. The ability to include the Section 3700.5 violation on the NTA could streamline the district attorney (DA) referral process. CSLB estimates that 20 percent of the NTAs issued for unlicensed practice will include the Section 3700.5 violation (misdemeanor charges filed with the DA for unlicensed activity and no WC policy).
The Department of Industrial Relations’ Division of Labor Standards Enforcement (DSLE) issues citations for failure to carry workers’ compensation insurance, however, it does not file the LC section 3700.5 violations with the DA; DSLE takes administrative action, whereas CSLB files criminal charges with the DA. The Department of Insurance
also takes action against employers for WC violations, but only against those that have WC policies (premium fraud issues), whereas DSLE and CSLB take action for not having a WC policy. DSLE has sole authority to cite for wage violations.
ERs currently list these violations in their written reports, and DA’s determine what charges are filed. This proposal does not significantly change existing practice, as WC violations can be noted in the written reports. Unlicensed contractors are likely violating other wage and tax laws, but this proposal provides specific authority for ERs to cite for WC violations only.
2). Authority to Issue Citations – Collection of Additional Information Relevant Provisions: Business and Professions Code section 7028.6
Summary: This proposal would allow the Contractors State License Board (CSLB) to collect a Social Security number from an individual contracting without a license. This authority would pertain primarily to individuals identified during an undercover sting
CSLB PROPOSES 2015LEGISLATIVE AGENDApresented by Phil Vermeulen, MBA Legislative Advocate
operation. Under existing law, the Contractors State License Board (CSLB) can collect Social Security numbers (SSN) from licensees, but does not have the authority to collect Social Security numbers from individuals who contract without a license.
Staff Comments: This new authority would improve CSLB’s ability to collect fines from unlicensed individuals. CSLB participates in the Franchise Tax Board’s Intercept Collection Program to assist in the collection of fines from licensees. This program intercepts refunds (including unclaimed state property and lottery winnings) when individuals have delinquent debts to government agencies. To seek recovery of a debt through the Intercept Collection Program, CSLB must submit a SSN, and with the authority to collect that information from unlicensed individuals CSLB could more likely collect unpaid fines through fuller participation in the program. One of the requirements to participate in the Intercept Collection Program involves at least a 30-day notification to an individual with an unpaid debt to give that person time to dispute or settle the debt. This proposal could improve the collection rate for citations against unlicensed contractors and, potentially, act as a greater deterrent to engaging in unlicensed activity.
3). Public Works Contracts Relevant Provisions: Business and Professions (B&P) Code section 7059
Summary: This proposal specifies that for public works contracts, a contractor who performs work out of class is subject to disciplinary action by the Contractors State License Board (CSLB). Staff Comments: Under existing law related to public works contracts, the awarding authority is responsible for determining the license classification necessary to bid on and execute the project. The law does prohibit awarding a prime contract to a specialty contractor whose classification constitutes less than a majority of work on the project.
“Public works contract,” as used in this part, means an agreement for the erection, construction, alteration, repair, or improvement of any public structure, building, road, or other public improvement of any kind. Because existing law grants the awarding agency, not CSLB, responsibility for determining which licensed contractor is suitable to perform construction-related work on public works projects, CSLB cannot take disciplinary action against contractors working outside of their classification on public works projects.
Existing law does not require that, when determining which license classification is necessary to bid and perform work on a public works project, awarding agencies do so according to the laws and regulations related to license classifications.
CSLB’s Licensing division has provided awarding agencies classification determinations for public works projects to ensure that they advertise appropriately and CSLB continues to provide training for contract staff at other state and local agencies.
CSLB’s Enforcement division provided some examples of cases where the Attorney General’s Office (AG) advised CSLB that a citation alleging a violation of Business and Professions Code section 7117.6 (acting as a contractor in an unauthorized classification) cannot be sustained:
1. The awarding agency’s contract stated that either a General “A” or a C-16 (Fire Protection) licensee could bid on the project. A General Engineering contractor that did not have the necessary C-16 Fire Protection classification won the bid. CSLB issued a citation but later withdrew it per the AG that the awarding agency, pursuant to B&P Code section 7059, determined that an “A” contractor could perform the fire protection work.
2. A school district solicited a bid for a contract to install ADA pedestrian ramps in a K-8 school. CSLB’s classification deputy reviewed the agency’s advertisement and recommended an “A” General Engineering contractor to perform the scope of work. The awarding agency ignored the recommendation and advertised for and awarded the contract to a “B” General Building contractor. The contractor had difficulty performing the required work, resulting in a financial injury to the agency. An accusation was filed and the licensee has stipulated to a revocation of the license.
While CSLB was able to take action against this licensee under current law, it illustrates the potential harm awarding agencies face when they hire contractors operating outside of their classification. The awarding agency disregarded CSLB’s recommendation and suffered a significant financial loss because of poor workmanship by the unqualified
Marin Builders Association ◆ WEEKLY BULLETIN ◆ Page 9
contractor. In this case, the contractor stipulated to revocation because of the large financial injury involved and other violations. 3. A contractor was awarded a bid to perform work at the John Wayne Airport. CSLB determined that the contractor was working out of class for the scope of work and issued a citation; the contractor appealed. Due to the way the project was advertised and because the awarding agency, per B&P Code section 7059 (b), can determine the required license classification, CSLB agreed to withdraw the citation provided the contractor obtained the appropriate classification.
4). Notification by Licensees of Changes in Recorded Information Relevant Provisions: Business and Professions (B&P) Code sections 136 and 7083
Summary: B&P Code section 136 is a general provision that applies to all Department of Consumer Affairs boards. It requires each licensee to notify the board of an address change within 30 days, unless the board, by regulation, specifies a shorter time. B&P Code section 7083, in the Contractors’ State License Law (CSLL), requires a licensee to notify the Registrar of an address change within 90 days.
Staff Comments: As these two sections establish different time periods for reporting, one of the provisions should be amended to eliminate any potential confusion. Staff recommends amending the section within the CSLL, rather than the provision that applies to all DCA boards, meaning that both sections of the law provide
for a 90-day window. Suggested amendment: B&P Code section 7083. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, All licensees shall notify the registrar, on a form prescribed by the registrar, in writing within 90 days of any change to information recorded under this chapter. This notification requirement shall include, but not be limited to, changes in business address, personnel, business name, qualifying individual bond exemption pursuant to Section 7071.9, or exemption to qualify multiple licenses pursuant to Section 7068.1. Failure of the licensee to notify the registrar of any change to information within 90 days shall cause the change to be effective the date the written notification is received at the board’s headquarters office.
Failure to notify the registrar of the changes within the 90 days is grounds for disciplinary action. Amendment to add Business and Professions Code section 7013.5 – Effect of DisciplinaryAction by Another State Agency.
5). (1) Officer/ Personnel Change Fee; (2) Additional Classification and Replacing the Qualifier Application Fee; (3) Application Priority Processing Fee
PROBLEM/SUMMARY: 1. Officer/Personnel Change Fee Contractor licenses are issued to sole owners, partnerships, corporations, limited liability companies (LLC), and joint ventures. Of these
business types, partnerships, corporations, and LLCs can change the officers/personnel on their license. When licensees change their personnel, they are required by law, pursuant to Business and Professions Code (B&P) section 7083, to notify CSLB.
In the past, processing applications for changes in personnel was relatively simple and involved verifying that the application was complete and that the new personnel were eligible for licensure. However, in recent years, processing these applications has become significantly more complex.
Since CSLB began fingerprinting applicants for licensure in 2005, processing applications for personnel changes includes fingerprinting and criminal background reviews. This additional licensing requirement adds significant staff time to review and analyze conviction documentation and can lead to the denial of a personnel change application because of a criminal conviction. In addition, CSLB began licensing LLCs in 2012, which are subject to bond, insurance, and personnel provisions that do not apply to other business entities. When processing a personnel change application for an LLC, the technician must ensure that these other requirements, which can change based on the number of personnel on the license, still are adequately met.
CSLB does not currently charge a fee to process applications to change personnel on a license, nor does it have the legal authority to do so. CSLB cannot continue this work without charging a fee due to the additional staff resources involved in processing applications for personnel changes. , Based on a workload analysis of the time it takes to
Marin Builders Association ◆ WEEKLY BULLETIN ◆ Page 10
process such an application, an appropriate application fee would be no more than XX dollars ($XX). 2. Additional Classification and Replacing the Qualifier Application Fee Existing licensees can apply to add additional classifications to their license or to replace the qualifying individual on their license. The processing time for an application to add a classification is comparable to that of an application for an original license: verification of the qualifying individual’s experience in the particular classification, and he or she must pass the trade examination for that classification. In addition, any related business name deemed acceptable. An original license application carries a $300 processing fee; however, an additional classification application is currently only $75.
Similarly, the applications to replace the qualifier and to receive an original license involve comparable processing complexity, but vastly different fees. Again, the original license application fee is $300, but the application fee to replace the qualifier is just $75. Since CSLB began fingerprinting applicants for licensure in 2005, processing applications to replace the qualifier includes fingerprinting and criminal background reviews. This additional licensing requirement adds significant staff time to review and analyze conviction documentation and can lead to the denial of a personnel change application because of a criminal conviction.
In addition, CSLB began licensing LLCs in 2012, which are subject to bond, insurance, and personnel provisions that do not apply to other business entities. When processing an application to replace the qualifier for an LLC, the technician must ensure that these
other requirements, which can change based on the personnel on the license, are still adequately met. Due to the complexity and additional staff time involved in processing these applications, the $75 fee is no longer sufficient. Based on a workload analysis of the time it takes to process such applications, an appropriate application fee for both would be no more than XX dollars ($XX). 3. Application Priority Processing Fee CSLB currently accepts requests to expedite processing applications for licensure. When these requests are approved, usually to support significant job creation, the applications move to the front of the line for initial review and processing. These applicants, like all others, must fulfill relevant licensure requirements, including testing and criminal background review. Expedited applications receive priority over others and the processing technicians focus their time on processing them thoroughly and promptly. In 2014, to date, CSLB has received approximately 500 requests to expedite an application, of which XXX (XX%) have been approved. Between the staff that review and act on the original requests and the technicians that devote significant portions of their workday to processing these applications, CSLB has determined that XX PYs are needed for the sole purpose of processing expedited documentation. Currently, CSLB charges no fee to review requests for expedited service or for processing these applications. Under this proposal, requests for priority processing of applications would not be subject to review for cause but, instead, approved upon submission of a completed request and payment of an adequate fee. Given the workload involved, CSLB has determined that an appropriate cost for priority processing would be no more than XX dollars ($XX).
Under certain circumstances, such as a declared emergency or for military personnel, CSLB may need to approve expedited processing of applications based on other changes must be reviewed and provisions of law for specific purposes. Such cases would be exempt from these new provisions and related fees.
PROPOSED CHANGE (Include the Related Sections of Law): Amend B&P Code section 7137 as follows:
The board shall set fees by regulation. These fees shall not exceed the following schedule:
(a) The application fee for an original license in a single classification shall not be more than three hundred dollars ($300). The application fee for each additional classification applied for in connection with an original license shall not be more than seventy-five dollars ($75). The application fee for each additional classification pursuant to Section 7059 shall not be more than seventy-five dollars ($75) XX dollars ($XX). The application fee to replace a responsible managing officer, responsible managing manager, responsible managing member, or responsible managing employee pursuant to Section 7068.2 shall not be more than seventy-five dollars ($75) XX dollars ($XX).
The application fee to add personnel, other than a qualifying individual, to an existing license shall not be more than XX dollars ($XX).
(b) The fee for rescheduling an examination for an applicant who has applied for an original license, additional classification, a change of responsible managing officer, responsible managing manager, responsible managing
Marin Builders Association ◆ WEEKLY BULLETIN ◆ Page 11
member, or responsible managing employee, or for an asbestos certification or hazardous substance removal certification, shall not be more than sixty dollars ($60).
(c) The fee for scheduling or rescheduling an examination for a licensee who is required to take the examination as a condition of probation shall not be more than sixty dollars ($60).
(d) The initial license fee for an active or inactive license shall not be more than one hundred eighty dollars ($180).
(e) The renewal fee for an active license shall not be more than three hundred sixty dollars ($360). The renewal fee for an inactive license shall not
be more than one hundred eighty dollars ($180).
(f) The delinquency fee is an amount equal to 50 percent of the renewal fee, if the license is renewed after its expiration.
(g) The registration fee for a home improvement salesperson shall not be more than seventy-five dollars ($75).
(h) The renewal fee for a home improvement salesperson registration shall not be more than seventy-five dollars ($75).
(i) The application fee for an asbestos certification examination shall not be more than seventy-five dollars ($75).
(j) The application fee for a hazardous substance removal or remedial action certification examination shall not be more than seventy-five dollars ($75).
(k) In addition to any other fees charged to C-10 and C-7 contractors, the board may charge a fee not to exceed twenty dollars ($20), which shall be used by the board to enforce provisions of the Labor Code related to electrician certification.
(l) The application fee for priority processing of applications for licensure shall not be more than XX dollars ($XX). Approved expedited processing of applications for licensure, as required by other provisions of law, shall not be subject to this paragraph.

The Capitol Connection Q&A for Contractors By Shauna Krause, Capitol Services, Inc.
Shakespeare offered good advice about names. While a rose may smell as sweet by any other name, for contractors the same may not be true of the description in your business name. When a license Qualifier leaves, going thru the exit door starts the clock on your ability to legally bid or continue working projects in process…
Q: I got my General Contractors license back in the 90’s and have since obtained “C-20” (HVAC) and “C-36” (Plumbing) licenses. It has been many years since I’ve done any building work. I exclusively do plumbing and heating. My business name includes the term “General Contracting” but I want it to reflect my specialty trades. Do I need to add a ‘doing business as’ (dba), or what is the best way to go about this? A: You have a couple options. You can either change the business name with the Secretary of State and then the CSLB to a new company name of your choice, or as you suggested, add a dba to your business name. The second option will allow you to keep your original business name, if that’s important to you, while still using the dba name. If you choose that option keep in mind that you must either do business using the entire name, i.e. ABC General Contracting Inc. dba ABC Plumbing and Heating, or just using the dba name. Q: We are forming a new corporation that will basically be a shell company for our current
contracting company. The shell company will sign the contracts and then sub-contract the work to our current licensed corporation. My first question is whether the shell company needs a license if they will not be performing the work? Secondly, the new entity will not have employees, only Officers. Are Officers considered employees? I’m wondering if we will need to get a new Worker’s Comp policy. A: Both the company signing the contract and the company performing the work will need to be licensed. If you will only have Officers and no additional employees then you can file an exemption from Worker’s Compensation. Keep in mind that the Qualifier will also need to be an Officer and not an RME (Responsible Managing Employee) if you are filing the exemption. Q: Our Qualifier left the company back in July and we haven’t notified the CSLB. We have an application in process with a new Qualifier but he hasn’t taken the exam yet or completed the fingerprint requirement. Our current Qualifier sent us a copy of the Disassociation Notice that he plans to submit to the CSLB noting the date that he resigned from the company. Is there anything that we can do to prevent a lapse in our license?
A: I would suggest filing a 90-day extension immediately. You have 90 days to replace the Qualifying individual, but the CSLB will usually grant a one-time 90-day extension to complete
the process if you have a current application in process to replace the Qualifier. Since you have already submitted an application, you should be eligible to receive the extension. If you do not submit the extension then as soon as the CSLB is made aware of your Qualifier’s disassociation in July, your license will automatically be suspended until the new Qualifier is approved. Contact our office if you’d like assistance with any of this.

Flammables—Propane Dispensing
Propane dispensing stations are found in industrial plants, campgrounds, home improvement stores, service stations, and convenience stores. Proper dispensing of propane protects the safety of operators, the general public, and the surrounding environment. Assure compliance with applicable regulations.
Physical properties of propane:
• Propane is a liquid in its compressed state inside of the cylinder and becomes a gas when pressure is released.
• Propane is colorless and odorless, but an odorant, usually a rotten egg smell, is added to assist in leak detection.
• Compressed propane is very cold and if it comes in contact with your skin or eyes, it will cause burns. Proper personal protective equipment, including gloves and safety glasses resistant to propane, needs to be worn when filling containers.
• Propane is not toxic but if released in a confined space, will displace oxygen. It is heavier than air and will settle in lower areas unless there is significant air movement. Therefore, always assure excellent ventilation.
• Propane is extremely flammable. Sources of ignition are prohibited within 25 feet of the point of transfer. Other combustible materials are prohibited within 10 feet of the point of transfer. Know the location of fire extinguishers and the emergency shut off valve and assure all employees are properly trained.
Inspect cylinders before refilling:
• All cylinders must be manufactured in accordance with industry standard specifications and marked as such. All specifications must be imprinted on the cylinder crown.
• Prior to filling, cylinders must be checked for cracks, bulges, defective valves, dents, or damage to the cylinder valve.
• Assure they are not condemned or past their service date. Cylinders must be requalified or replaced every 5-12 years depending on their condition and their previous requalification method.
• A blue-green stain on the brass portion of the cylinder indicates that it has been in contact with corrosive environments and must not be used.
• Follow all instructions of the supplier and containers being used for propane filling and do not overfill cylinder.
Marin Builders Association ◆ WEEKLY BULLETIN ◆ Page 14
Flammables—Propane Dispensing
Cylinder marking will show 12-year requalification information and that the
cylinder meets DOT specifications.
Cylinder labeling:
• Cylinders used to transport propane must have the proper shipping name and hazard class marked on the side of the cylinder.
Properly utilize propane dispensing equipment:
• Review the propane dispensing instructions of all equipment being used, and assure all employees are properly trained and authorized prior to dispensing work.
• Inspect all valves, piping, transfer hoses, and fittings for proper operation.
• Assure tight fittings between the hoses and containers.
• Assure excellent ventilation and that there are no ignition sources.
• Slowly open liquid outlet valve.
• Report any leaks or problems to supervisor.
• When dispensing is complete, close all valves at the storage tank. Place dust cap or plug in the hose end valve or filling adaptor.
• Store filler hose in proper location.
• Close and lock propane storage cabinet or fence gate.

Inflamables—Dispensación de propano
Las estaciones de dispensación de propano se encuentran en las plantas industriales, campamentos, tiendas de bricolaje, estaciones de servicio y tiendas de conveniencia. La dispensación adecuada de propano protege la seguridad de los operadores, el público en general y el medio ambiente circundante. Asegúrese del cumplimiento de la normativa aplicable.
Propiedades físicas del propano:
• El propano es un líquido en su estado comprimido dentro del cilindro y se convierte en un gas cuando se libera la presión.
• El propano es incoloro e inodoro, pero un olor, por lo general un olor a huevo podrido, se añade para ayudar en la detección de fugas.
• El propano comprimido es muy frío y si entra en contacto con la piel o los ojos, puede causar quemaduras. Se debe usar el equipo de protección personal adecuado, incluyendo guantes y gafas de protección resistentes a propano, durante el llenado de contenedores.
• El propano no es tóxico, pero si se libera en un espacio confinado, se desplazará el oxígeno. Es más pesado que el aire y se asiente en áreas más bajas si no hay movimiento de aire suficiente. Por lo tanto, siempre asegúrese de la excelente ventilación.
• El propano es sumamente inflamable. Las fuentes de ignición se prohíben dentro de 25 pies del punto de transferencia. Otros materiales combustibles se prohíben dentro de 10 pies del punto de transferencia. Sepa la ubicación de los extintores de incendios y la válvula de apagado de emergencia. Asegúrese de que todos los empleados reciban una capacitación adecuada.
Inspeccione los cilindros antes de rellenar:
• Todos los cilindros se deben fabricar de acuerdo con las especificaciones estándares de la industria y marcados como tal. Se deben marcar todas las especificaciones en la parte superior del cilindro.
• Antes del llenado, se deben revisar los cilindros en busca de grietas, protuberancias, válvulas defectuosas, abolladuras o daños en la válvula del cilindro.
• Asegúrese de que no sean declarados inutilizables o atrasados de la fecha de servicio. Se deben recalificar o reemplazar los cilindros cada 5 a 12 años, dependiendo de su condición y de su método de recalificación anterior.
• Una mancha verdeazulada en la parte de latón del cilindro indica que ha estado en contacto con ambientes corrosivos y no debe ser utilizado.
• Siga todas las instrucciones del proveedor y los recipientes que se utilizan para el llenado de propano. No sobrellene los cilindros.
Marin Builders Association ◆ WEEKLY BULLETIN ◆ Page 17
Inflamables—Dispensación de propano
El marcado del cilindro mostrará la información de recalificación de 12 años y que el cilindro
cumple con las especificaciones de DOT.
Etiquetado del cilindro:
• Los cilindros que se utilizan para el transporte de propano deben tener el nombre correcto de transporte y el clase de peligro marcados en el lado del cilindro
Utilice correctamente los equipos de dispensación de propano:
• Revise las instrucciones para la dispensación de propano de todo el equipo que se utiliza. Asegúrese de que todos los empleados estén
capacitados y autorizados de manera adecuada antes de realizar las operaciones de dispensación.
• Inspeccione todas las válvulas, tuberías, mangueras de transferencia y accesorios para su funcionamiento correcto.
• Asegúrese de las conexiones ajustadas entre las mangueras y los recipientes.
• Asegúrese de una ventilación excelente y que no haya fuentes de ignición.
• Abra lentamente la válvula de salida de líquido.
• Informe las fugas o problemas al supervisor.
• Al terminar la dispensación, cierre todas las válvulas en el tanque de almacenamiento. Coloque la tapa de polvo o el enchufe en el extremo de la manguera de la válvula o en el adaptador de llenado.
• Almacene la manguera de llenado en el lugar correcto.
• Cierre con llave el gabinete de almacenamiento de propano o la puerta de la valla.
