criteria established pursuant to this article 64, the board or its authorized designee
shall submit to the holder or a school's designated agent for service of process a
notice of noncompliance setting forth the reasons therefor in writing. The notice

and during which time the holder shall also be afforded the opportunity to eliminate
the reason for the notice.

has willfully and deliberately violated the criteria established pursuant to this

emergency action and incorporates such findings in its order, it may summarily
suspend the certificate of approval or agent's permit pending a hearing, which shall
be promptly instituted and determined.

(4) A certificate of approval or an agent's permit may also be revoked by the
board if the holder thereof has furnished false or misleading written or oral
statements, documents, or other representations to the board with the intent to
mislead or conceal the truth of any matter considered by the board as a factor in
approving the application for a certificate of approval or an agent's permit or for
continuing in effect the certificate of approval or an agent's permit.

thereof has had its surety bond canceled and has not replaced it within fifteen days
