Sec. 652.38  Scope of decertification.

    (a) When the technical service provider is a private sector entity 
or public agency, the decertifying official may decertify the entire 
organization, including all the individuals identified as authorized to 
provide technical services under the auspices of such organization. The 
decertifying official may also limit the scope of decertification, for 
example, to one or more specifically named individuals identified as 
authorized to provide technical services under the organization's 
auspices or to an organizational element of such private sector entity 
or public agency. The scope of decertification will be set forth in the 
decertification determination and will be based upon the facts of each 
decertification action, including whether actions of particular 
individuals can be imputed to the larger organization.
    (b) In cases where specific individuals are decertified only, an 
entity or public agency must file within 10 calendar days an amended 
Certification Agreement removing the decertified individual(s) from the 
Certification Agreement. In addition, the entity or public agency must 
demonstrate that, to the satisfaction of the State Conservationist, the 
entity or public agency has taken affirmative steps to ensure that the 
circumstances resulting in decertification have been addressed.
