1(1) Provisional License. If a license expires while an action to deny or revoke the license is pending and renewal applications are filed, the Agency may issue a provisional license. The provisional license shall identify the pending action. The provisional license will expire when the Agency action is final or one year after issuance, whichever occurs first. The provisional license does not affect the revocation or denial action or constitute a defense on behalf of the licensee or applicant.
