A. Any aggrieved party may request an administrative review of an irrigation water duty or conservation requirement established pursuant to section 45-565, 45-566, 45-566.01, 45-567, 45-567.01, 45-568 or 45-568.01. Except as provided in subsection B of this section, the request must be made not later than ninety days from the date of notice of such duty or requirement given thirty days after the adoption of the management plan or if the notice was given pursuant to section 45-566.01, subsection E or 45-571.02, subsection B, not later than ninety days from the date of the notice.
B. An aggrieved person who claims that extraordinary circumstances not in existence as of the date of notice that was given thirty days after adoption of the management plan justify modification of an irrigation water duty or conservation requirement established pursuant to section 45-565, 45-566, 45-566.01, 45-567, 45-567.01, 45-568 or 45-568.01 may request administrative review of the water duty or conservation requirement more than ninety days from the date of notice of the water duty or conservation requirement. The director may modify the water duty or conservation requirement if the aggrieved person demonstrates to the director by clear and convincing evidence that extraordinary circumstances not in existence as of the date of the notice that was given thirty days after adoption of the management plan make it unreasonable to require compliance with a water duty or conservation requirement.
C. The director shall give written notice to the aggrieved party who is requesting an administrative review of the opportunity for an administrative hearing. An administrative hearing shall be held before the director's decision on the application if the director deems a hearing necessary or a hearing is requested by the applicant.
D. A party aggrieved by the director's decision may seek judicial review of the final decision of the director as provided in section 45-114, subsection B in the superior court in the county in which the irrigated land or the non-irrigation use is located.
E. Section 45-114, subsections A and B govern administrative proceedings, rehearing or review and judicial review of final decisions of the director under this section. If an administrative hearing is held, it shall be conducted in the active management area in which the use is located.
