Upon approval of this report by the director, the county shall be eligible to receive subsidy.

When the director shall determine that there are reasonable grounds to believe that a county is not in compliance with the operating standards established pursuant to subsection 2 of this section, at least thirty days' notice shall be given the county and a hearing shall be held to ascertain whether progress has been made toward compliance. The director may suspend all or a portion of any subsidy until the required standard of operation has been met.
