      expiration date of a registration card, the  department  shall  mail  to
      each  registrant  at  his  last  known  address, notice of renewal and a
      registration renewal form.  Registration  cards  shall  not  be  renewed
      unless  not  more  than  sixty  nor  less  than thirty days prior to the
      expiration date of the registration card,  the  holder  submits  to  the
      department,  a  registration  renewal  form  sworn to or affirmed by the
      holder under the penalty of perjury together with a biennial renewal fee
      in the amount of twenty-five dollars payable to  the  department  and  a
      certificate  certifying that the holder has satisfactorily completed the
      required  annual  in-service  training  courses  as  prescribed  by  the
      commissioner  pursuant  to  subdivision  one  of  section  eight hundred
      forty-one-c of the executive law. Unless the department  determines  the
      existence  of  facts which would constitute cause for denial, revocation
      or suspension of the registration card  pursuant  to  this  article,  it
      shall  renew the registration card. Denial of renewal hereunder shall be
      reviewable  by  an  administrative  hearing  as  set  forth  in  section
      seventy-nine  of  this  chapter. The twenty-five dollar biennial renewal
      fee collected by the department shall  be  deposited  to  the  licensing
      examinations  services account established pursuant to the provisions of
      section 97-aa of the state finance law. Notice that a registration  card
      has  expired  or  has not been renewed pursuant to this section shall be
      given by the secretary to the holder of such registration  card  and  to
      the security guard company by which such holder was employed at the time
      of such expiration or non-renewal.
        2.  A  registration card which was not renewed or which expired may be
      reissued  only  in  a  manner  prescribed  by  rules   and   regulations
      promulgated by the department.
