69-3-135. Request for hearing.
A written request for a hearing before the water quality control board on the stop work order must be filed by the operator with the commissioner of environment and conservation within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice. If a hearing is requested, the operator shall also be afforded the opportunity to meet with the commissioner of environment and conservation or, at the commissioner's option, the deputy or assistant commissioner, within three (3) working days after the hearing request is filed to discuss the alleged violation and show cause why a stop work order should not have been issued. Any modification or revocation of the stop work order shall be in writing. If the commissioner or such designee upholds the stop work order, it shall remain in effect until resolution of the appeal or the operator comes into compliance. If no request for hearing is made within thirty (30) days of the receipt of notice, the stop work order becomes final and not subject to review.
