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.

deficiency 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.

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