Oregon Construction Contractors (CCB) Practice Test

To reactivate an inactive contractor's license in Oregon, a current Certificate of Insurance is indeed a requirement. This ensures that the contractor maintains valid liability insurance, which is essential for protecting the public and the contractor against potential claims resulting from their work. Insurance provides a financial safeguard for clients and helps to ensure that contractors are operating within the legal requirements of the state. In the context of the other options, completing a new application or passing an exam may apply in different situations, such as if the license has been expired for a significant amount of time or if there were serious violations. However, reactivation typically focuses on the need for current insurance coverage and fulfilling any outstanding obligations. Being able to reactivate without conditions would not align with the regulatory standards in place to ensure safety and professionalism in the construction industry.
