In all cases, when the corrective measures have not been taken
within the time specified, the Director shall suspend or revoke the

In the event a permit is revoked and the person continues to
operate, the Director may request the action of a court of law to

relief as the facts may warrant.

act being appealed and the grounds for its reversal.
