When qualifying a corporation, the RMO must be listed as an officer. Which role would NOT by itself establish someone as a bona fide corporate officer for RMO purposes?
Explanation
B&P §7065 requires a corporation's RMO to be a bona fide officer — president, vice president, secretary, or treasurer — so the three officers listed here all qualify, and only the field superintendent does not. That person may still qualify the corporation, but as an RME under §7068, which carries the 32-hour bona fide employment test rather than an officer title. The trap is assuming that running the work is what makes an RMO; for the RMO route it is the office held, and for the RME route it is the employment relationship.
