certification;
(b) employees of a pesticide business licensee using only nonaerial methods
of applying pesticides and who work only under the supervision of a certified

professional services;
(d) qualified laboratory personnel employed by recognized pesticide
research facilities, using pesticides or pest control services while

by a federal agency which has its own certification program which is the
full equivalent of the requirements of this state.
Such a commercial applicator's certificate shall be required in addition to any
other license or permit required by law for the operation or use of pesticide
application equipment. Any person applying for such commercial applicator's
certificate shall file an application on a form prescribed by the secretary.
If the secretary finds the applicant qualified to
apply pesticides in the categories or subcategories
the applicant has applied for after
examinations on the same basis as provided for in K.S.A. 2-2443a, and
amendments thereto, the secretary shall issue a commercial applicator's
certificate limited to the categories or subcategories
for which the applicant is qualified, which
certificate shall expire at the end of the second calendar year after
the year of issue. If a certificate is not issued as applied for, the
secretary shall inform the applicant in writing of the reasons for such denial.
