Section 13.30.080. Revocation of handgun course certificate of approval.

	(a)  Except as provided in (b) of this section, the department will immediately revoke a handgun course certificate of approval issued under 13 AAC 30.070, and will mail to the certificate holder a notice of the revocation, if the  
		(1) department has reason to believe that the handgun course no longer meets the requirements of 13 AAC 30.070(a) for approval of a handgun course; or  
		(2) certificate holder submitted an application under 13 AAC 30.070, or a document in connection with the application, that contained a  
			(A) false statement that the applicant does not believe to be true; or  
			(B) material misstatement or omission.  
	(b)  If the department obtains information about an instructor of an approved handgun course that would result in denial of the handgun course's application for a certificate of approval if the application was being considered by the department, the department will immediately notify the chief operating officer of the handgun course that, in order to retain the course's certificate of approval, the instructor may not be allowed to continue providing instruction for purposes of AS 18.65.715. The course of instruction being provided by that instructor at the time of notice under this subsection will not satisfy the requirements of AS 18.65.700 - 18.65.790 and 13 AAC 30.010 - 13 AAC 30.900. If the department determines that the instructor is continuing to provide instruction for purposes of AS 18.65.715, the department will immediately revoke the handgun course's certificate of approval and will mail to the certificate holder a notice of revocation.  
	(c)  The holder of a certificate of approval that is revoked under this section may appeal the revocation to the commissioner. The appeal must be received in writing within 30 days after the date of the notice of revocation, and must set out the reasons for the appeal. The decision of the commissioner or the commissioner's designee will be in writing and will be made within 45 calendar days after receipt of the appeal.  
	(d)  The holder of a certificate of approval that is revoked under this section shall immediately surrender the certificate by sending it to the department's permits and licensing unit.  
	(e)  A certificate of approval that is revoked under this section may be reinstated if the person or organization operating the handgun course (1) provides proof to the department that the reason for the revocation has been rectified; and (2) resubmits an application for a certificate of approval that meets the requirements of 13 AAC 30.070. However, a certificate of approval that was revoked for the reason set out in (a)(2) of this section may not be reinstated sooner than one year following the date of the notice of revocation under this section.
