It shall be a violation of this act for any person to remove or dispose of such detained or embargoed article by sale or otherwise without such permission. Within 10 days after embargoing or impounding any source of radiation, the department shall give notice to the person causing the violation or hazardous condition prescribing circumstances under which the source of radiation will be returned to the custody of the person. If the person, within a reasonable time as may be fixed by the department, does not furnish satisfactory evidence to the department of present and intended future compliance with the conditions, the rights of the person, with respect to the source of radiation so secured or impounded, shall become the property of the State to be disposed of by the department on behalf of the State in any manner consistent with public health and safety.
