				mechanic who performs work on any equipment not currently registered with the
				department shall report such non-registered equipment to the department as soon
				as possible, but not to exceed five (5) business days after performing work

				equipment shall be performed until such equipment is registered with the
				department.

				mechanic shall have under their direct supervision more than two (2)
				helpers/apprentices.

				mechanic having the ability to physically intervene with a helper/apprentice at
				the jobsite within a safe and prudent timeframe. Only a licensed mechanic shall
