36-495.14. Out-of-state laboratories; licensure; reciprocity

A. Except as provided in this section, a laboratory located outside of this state that performs compliance testing shall be licensed pursuant to this chapter. The laboratory shall pay all applicable fees and is subject to the same investigatory and disciplinary powers of the department. In addition, the department, by rule, may require that the laboratory post a bond with the department to cover the travel costs of prelicensure and postlicensure inspections and evaluations.

B. A laboratory which is located outside of this state and is licensed by this state shall renew the license by submitting an application and fee at least sixty days before the expiration of the license. The department, by rule, may also prescribe that an out-of-state application be accompanied by an additional fee to cover the costs of prerelicensure on-site evaluation and inspection.

C. The director shall designate the location of hearings held in relation to disciplinary matters or the issuance of a license.

D. The director may enter into a reciprocity agreement with the licensing agency of another state if the director determines that the licensing requirements of that state are substantially equal to those of this state. The agreement shall provide that the licensing agencies of both states shall recognize a current license issued by the other state for the purpose of meeting the licensure requirements of either state. The agreement shall also provide that both states, on the request of either state, shall conduct necessary investigations to determine compliance and shall allow on-site inspections by investigators from either state.

E. If a reciprocal state revokes, suspends or refuses to renew the license of a laboratory located in that state, this state shall recognize that action unless the laboratory notifies the department within five business days of the action that it wishes this state to undertake an independent review and investigation and posts a bond as prescribed by the department to conduct the review. If, at the conclusion of that review, this state determines that the laboratory meets the licensure requirements of this state, it shall issue a license to that laboratory on payment of all fees required by this chapter. Notwithstanding the terms of a reciprocity agreement, if either state takes action contrary to the action of the other, neither state has to recognize the license issued by the other.
