The commission shall notify by certified mail each person required to file a
statement of financial interests who fails to file the statement in a timely manner,
completely, or in the form required by the commission. The notice shall specify the
type of failure or delinquency and shall advise the person of the penalties for
violation of this section.

in his filing identified by the commission in the notice under subsection (1) of
this section in a timely manner may be fined by the commission an amount
not to exceed one hundred dollars ($100) per day, up to a maximum total fine
of one thousand dollars ($1,000) without the necessity of a complaint being
filed, notwithstanding KRS 6.686(1)(a), but only after notice has been given
to the alleged violator of the intent of the commission to impose a fine,
including the amount of the fine, and an opportunity has been afforded the
alleged violator to appear before the commission or otherwise offer evidence
as he may choose in mitigation of the imposition of the fine.

knows to contain false information or to omit required information shall be
