Willfully violated any provision of this chapter or any rule or regulation promulgated pursuant to this chapter;
Obtained, or attempted to obtain, the license by fraud or misrepresentation;
Been guilty of fraudulent or dishonest practices;

Has been convicted of a felony for the commission of an offense that bears directly on the fitness of the applicant or holder to practice competently, as determined by the commissioner.
All actions pursuant to this section shall be conducted pursuant to the Uniform Administrative Procedures Act, compiled in title 4, chapter 5.
No licensee whose license has been revoked under this section is entitled to file another application for a license as a well driller or as an installer within one (1) year from the effective date of such revocation, or, if judicial review of such revocation is sought, within one (1) year from the date of the final court order or decree affirming such revocation. Such application, when filed, may be refused by the commissioner, unless the applicant shows good cause why revocation of the license shall not be deemed a bar to the issuance of a new license.
