(A) The Department may at any time revoke a special event permit if the operation of the event is in violation of this subchapter or any other applicable law, or if such revocation is necessary to preserve the health or safety of the public. Written notice of the revocation with the reasons therefor shall be mailed to or served upon the sponsor of the event at the time of revocation. Unless the permit will expire by its own terms before a hearing can be reasonably scheduled, no such revocation will take effect until the sponsor of the event has been given notice and an opportunity to be heard in accordance with rules and regulations issued by the Department. When necessary to prevent an immediate threat to the health or safety of the public, the Department shall order the sponsor of the event to cease operation of the special event pending the outcome of the hearing.
(B) For any violation of the special event permit or the rules and regulations promulgated under this subchapter which endangers the health or safety of the public, no new special event permits shall be issued to the sponsor of the event for the remainder of the year of that event and for the following calendar year.
