The Department shall respond within 20 days to the licensee's disputation. (b) If a licensee contests the Department's decision regarding a Level 4 to 6 citation or penalty, it can request a hearing by submitting a written request within 20 working days of the Department's dispute resolution decision. The Department shall notify the licensee of the time and place of the hearing not less than 14 days prior to the hearing date.
