NEWSLETTER
April, 2007 The Law
Impetus for establishing the Oklahoma Highway Construction Materials Technician Certification Board came from Federal Mandate 23 CFR Part 637 which required all acceptance and independent assurance testing to be performed by “qualified personnel.” This led to Governor Keating signing House Bill 1476 on May 26, 1999. This bill created the Oklahoma Highway Construction Materials Technician Registration Act and established the Highway Construction Materials Technician Certification (HCMTC) Board and the HCMTC Board Revolving Fund. This act further states that the Board “shall be independent of, but shall receive administrative and financial support from, the Department of Transportation.” The Board also determines, subject to Legislative approval, the fees for the various training and certification modules.
HB 1476 became official on July 1, 1999. Since that time, the Board has trained and certified 1373 technicians. A total of 820 technicians have been registered. (This is individuals, not the actual number of certifications. One individual may hold many certifications.) All certifications expire five years from the date of issuance. The Rules
The Act states that the Board “shall be authorized to promulgate rules governing the examination and registration of highway construction materials technicians.” The rules are an extension of the law and are, therefore, subject to Legislative review and approval. There are three chapters in the current official rules covering a) Administrative Operations, b) Examination and Certification, and c) Complaints and Individual Proceedings. The rules can be accessed from the Official web site of the Board. (See page 3 for more on the web site.)
