When the department evaluates an application for an initial license or registration or the renewal of a license or registration under AS 06.60, if the reasonable costs and reasonable investigative fees, including examination costs, incurred by the department exceed a fee established in 3 AAC 14.072 or 3 AAC 14.160, the applicant must reimburse those excess fees and costs, with the hours expended by a department employee to be reimbursed at the rate of $75 per hour, before the department takes action on the application.
