Technicians, whether NCDOT or Industry personnel, are
subject to loss of certification by revocation. The primary reason
for the loss of a certification by this means would be the falsifying of
test results, records and/or reports. Other reasons that might lead
to loss of certification include insubordination, gross negligence and
apparent incompetence on the part of the technician. Any reported
occurrence of the willful violation, misuse or abuse of this certification
will be investigated by the NCDOT Pavement Construction Engineer and he
will advise the State Roadway Construction Engineer of any findings and
recommendations. Final revocation of the certification, when deemed
appropriate, will be made in writing by the State Construction Engineer
to the affected technician, with notification to all other applicable parties.
The length of revocation shall also be determined by the State Construction
Engineer. |
