An appeal stays all further action on the matter being appealed unless the Administrator certifies to the Board, after the notice of appeal has been filed with him or her, that for reasons stated in the certificate, a stay would cause imminent peril to life or property. In such case, further action shall not be stayed unless the Board or the circuit court grants a restraining order for due cause, and so notifies the Administrator.
