IMPORTANT NOTICE  

The Board's Raleigh office will be closed on Thursday, September 2, 2010 between 11:00 am - 2:00 pm.

If you need to visit the office on that date, please do so between 8:00 am - 11:00 am or 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm.

During 2009, a number of proposed rule changes were published, a public hearing was held, and the rules were approved by the North Carolina Rules Review Commission.  As a result, new rules regarding licensing have been published and became effective in 2010.  Many of the new rules became effective as of January 1st, with others effective on July 1st.  You may click here to read the new rules. 

Please note that rules that were not revised during this process will remain as published in the current Edition (October, 2007) of the Laws & Rules (commonly referred to as "the green book".)  You may click here to download a copy of the new rules that can be inserted into the current Laws & Rules book.  The next revision of the book will occur in 2011, and will include the new rules.

Two important changes became effective on July 1, 2010.

- Many of the fees charged by the Board increased slightly.

- The Board began issuing licenses for the recently created Residential Fire Sprinkler Installation Contractor.
