What is Water Treatment Specialist Registration – Dallas, TX?
The Water Treatment Specialist Registration is the City of Dallas Development Services Department form, titled "Water Treatment Specialist Contractor" on its pages, through which a licensed water treatment specialist applies for registration with the city, either as a new registration or as a renewal.
The form states that application is made under the City Code and that the form must be completely filled out to be accepted. Page 1 collects company information (company name, address, mailing address, phone, email and fax, state license number and its expiration date, contractor number) and the licensed specialist's name, home phone, home address and optional email. Companies inside the Dallas city limits give either a C.O. number or whether a Home Office Form is on file.
Page 2 lists the personnel the specialist authorizes to sign permits on the specialist's behalf. Each person is listed with a PIN of 4 digits or less, and the licensed specialist is listed first. The License Holder is responsible for adding and removing people on that list.
By signing, the specialist certifies full compliance with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) as a Water Treatment Specialist and swears the information is true. The signature must be witnessed by a Registration Clerk or notarized. The form notes that a certificate of registration expires annually on the expiration date of the State license. The form is revised 5/13/2024.
