again on March 16, 2005, which resulted in a Notice of Intent to Impose Administrative
Action on March 16, 2005. A similar type violation was again cited on July 21, 2005,
resulting in an Administrative Complaint (fine) in the amount of seventy-five dollars
($75.00) being levied on August 8, 2005. On November 17, 2005, the Director was
informed in writing of the availability of the competency-based examination for the 5
