MA Title 5 Renewals

Under Title 5, all SIs and SEs must renew their approvals on a 3-year cycle. To renew your SE or SI license, submit a renewal form by mail or email (sent to you by NEIWPCC prior to expiration date), along with the appropriate fee. If this is NOT your first renewal (i.e. 2nd, 3rd, etc.) submit copies of 10 training contact hours (TCHs) along with the renewal form and fee. You will then receive an updated wallet card from NEIWPCC a few weeks later. Any SE or SI who does not submit a renewal with payment will have their license revoked and must retake the examination(s) to regain their approval. TCHs are not required for your first license renewal or inactive SEs and SIs.

If you do not renew your SE or SI license you will not be authorized to conduct Title 5 system inspections or soil evaluations. 

You can renew as INACTIVE. Inactive SEs and SIs cannot perform evaluations or inspections. As long as you keep renewing every three years as required you do not have to earn any TCHs. To change your approval to INACTIVE status check the inactive box on your invoice.

To return to ACTIVE status, complete 10 TCHs and fill out a status change form. Mail the completed form with copies of your training certificates and a $25 admin fee to NEIWPCC, as detailed on the form. Note: TCHs need to be taken in the same year as the request (old training cannot be used). 

For first-time renewals (anyone expiring on a date other than June 30), download and print the appropriate form below and follow the instructions.
