The one-year Water Well Driller and Pump Installer licenses will switch to a two-year license starting on March 1, 2025. Starting on March 1, 2025, licensees will be required to complete 8 hours of continuing education โ including 1 hour of instruction covering the Water Well Driller/Pump Installer statutes and rules โ during that two-year license term.
Licensees who currently hold a one-year license and will renew that license before February 28, 2025, must complete 4 hours of continuing education and will be issued a two-year license. The next time they renew their license, they will have to complete the 8 hours of continuing education.
Interim Executive Director Brian E. Francis signed an executive memo allowing TDLR to continue to accept the four hours of continuing education for one-year licensees instead of requiring them to complete the 8 hours.
