discontinue the issuance of new Class B electrician licenses.

SB 62 discontinues the issuance of new Class B electrician licenses in South Dakota after July 1, 2026. It directly affects future applicants seeking this specific license type, as only those already licensed before that date may continue practicing. The bill amends South Dakota law to define "Class B electrician" exclusively as individuals licensed prior to July 1, 2026, with the necessary experience and qualifications. This change ends the process for new applicants to obtain this license category.
