Action by the department resulting in such revocation shall\nbecome effective only after a hearing held by the department upon notice\nto such person, at which proof of facts indicating the violation is\nestablished to the satisfaction of the commissioner, or of the hearing\nofficer and concurred in by the commissioner. A person whose license to\nhunt has been revoked as provided in this subdivision is ineligible for\nsuch license during the period determined by the department as provided\nin this section. No such person shall, during such period, procure any\nlicense for which he is ineligible. No person shall without license hunt\nor trap during any period in which the privilege to do so has been\ndenied him by the department as provided in this section. When the\ndepartment has revoked a license, or has denied to any person the\nability to obtain a license, it shall cause the fact of such revocation\nor denial, or both, as the case may be, and the terms and extent\nthereof, to be entered in the minutes of the department, and shall\nforthwith send a written notice of its action as so entered in the\nminutes to the person affected, at his last known address, either by\nregistered or certified mail or by delivery personally by a\nrepresentative of the department. Within five days after service of such\nnotice, such person shall deliver to the department the license or\nlicenses revoked, together with any bowhunting privileges,\nmuzzle-loading privileges or tags issued in connection with them. If the\nlicense was one entitling the holder to the privilege of several\nlicenses, and the revocation concerned some but not all of such\nprivileges, any license, bowhunting privilege, muzzle-loading privilege\nor tag so delivered shall be returned by the department to the person to\nwhom it was issued, appropriately marked or stamped to show the extent\nto which it is revoked.\n 4.
