INSTRUCTIONS
The provisions of Chapter 616A to D, inclusive, of the Nevada Revised Statutes require every person, firm, voluntary association, and private corporation, including any public service corporation, which has any person, subcontractor, or independent contractor, under contract of hire, to obtain industrial insurance coverage in Nevada or obtain a certificate of self-insurance from the Nevada Commissioner of Insurance. Subcontractors and independent contractors engaged in the same trade, business, profession or occupation as the hiring person or business, are by law considered to be employees. One exception to the requirement for industrial insurance is if you or your business hires no employees, subcontractors or independent contractors. You are not required to obtain industrial insurance coverage for the following employees: theatrical or stage performers; casual musicians; household domestics, farm, dairy, agricultural or horticultural laborers, or persons engaged in stock or poultry raising; voluntary ski patrolman; real estate brokers and/or salesmen; direct sellers; or clergy. Businesses which elect to obtain industrial insurance coverage for such persons, gain valuable rights and significantly reduce liabilities for injuries to these persons. A business which hires persons who are exempt from the provisions of Chapter 616A to 617, inclusive, of the Nevada Revised Statutes may be held liable in tort for injuries to those persons. A business which hires exempt persons may elect to obtain industrial insurance, including sole proprietor coverage and partnerships.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Pursuant to the provisions of NRS 616D.200(1): Any employer within the provisions of NRS 616B.633 who fails to provide, secure or maintain compensation as required by the terms of this chapter, is: (a) for the first offense, guilty of a misdemeanor and (b) for a second or subsequent offense committed within 7 years after the previous offense, guilty of a category D felony.

valid for 180 days from the date of approval and will
expire if not commenced for the proposed use for which
the Business License Review was obtained.
The Nye County Planning Department may have
approved your Business License Review Application;
however, you must refer to any restrictive covenants
(CCR’s, Declaration, etc.) of record that may prohibit
the proposed use on this lot or which may require
adherence to stricter development standards. The Nye
County Planning Department does not provide legal or
business advice. Any approval issued by the Planning
Department is related only to the land use and the
proposed development as described on the approved
application. You must comply with any and all Federal,
State, County or Town regulations that may pertain to
your business. There are additional requirements for
allowing public entry into a home-based business, liquor
licensing, fireworks, brothels, gaming, etc
A Business License Review approval by Nye County
Planning Department does not constitute approval by
Pahrump Building Safety for occupancy change,
structural modifications or fire related issues; it does not
constitute an approval by Pahrump Valley Fire-Rescue
Services for life-safety compliance; it does not correlate
to an approval by any organized Homeowner’s
Association/Architectural Review Committee; nor does
it relieve you of your responsibility as the Property
Owner/Business Owner for discovering and adhering to
all required Ordinances, Regulations, Rules, Codes and
Laws. Anyone developing within an area that may be
governed by any such organized Homeowner’s
Association/Architectural Review Committee should
contact that organization.
