Text

1. Prior to suspending, restricting, or revoking a registration, refusing a renewal of
registration, or otherwise disciplining a registrant, the board shall serve upon the registrant
a notice in accordance with section 17A.12, subsection 1. The proceedings shall comply with
the contested case procedures in accordance with chapter 17A. The proceedings shall also
be conducted without regard to any criminal prosecution or other proceeding. Proceedings
to refuse renewal of registration shall not abate the existing registration which shall remain
in effect pending the outcome of the administrative hearing.

adjudicative proceedings in accordance with section 17A.18A, if it finds that there is an
imminent danger to the public health or safety which warrants this action. The suspension
shall continue in effect until the conclusion of the proceedings, including judicial review
thereof, under the provisions of the Iowa administrative procedure Act, chapter 17A, unless
sooner withdrawn by the board or dissolved by the order of the district court or an appellate
court.
