Upon approval, the state sealer shall issue to the applicant a registration certificate that expires on December 31st, or in the manner provided in the Maine Administrative Procedure Act, whichever is later, unless sooner suspended or revoked under section 2655. A registration may be issued for a one-year, 2‑year or 3‑year period. Registrations for a period in excess of one year may only be issued with the agreement of or at the request of the applicant. The fee for a 2-year registration is 2 times the annual fee. The fee for a 3-year registration is 3 times the annual fee.   [RR 2023, c. 2, Pt. C, §59 (COR).]
