1. (a) Any registrant of the OBN may surrender the registration in lieu of or in addition to administrative action at any time before such action is taken. In such a case, the registrant will waive the right to reapply for an OBN registration for a period of six (6) months from the effective date of the surrender. In such case, the OBN Director may approve or deny any application from the registrant following this six (6) month period based on the impact issuing the requested registration may have on the general public safety. A surrender of an OBN registration made in lieu of further administrative action shall be reported to the National Practitioner Data Bank pursuant to 45 CFR §60.1 et seq, if required.
2. (b) In the event a registration is annulled, revoked, suspended, or surrendered, either voluntarily or following administrative action, the registrant may not, at any time, utilize the registration of another individual and/or institution. Any effort to utilize the registration of another shall be considered unlawful dispensation, administration, distribution, manufacturing, and/or prescription of a controlled dangerous substance as set forth under Title 63 of the Oklahoma Statutes.
3. (c) A registrant, including any beneficial owner recorded in the registration record, or the registrant's legal representative may surrender the registration on behalf of the registrant. Nothing in this provision shall be construed to grant OBN authority to accept or reject an authorized surrender; only to execute it in a timely manner on the applicable registration
