A request for hearing, directed to the Safety Director, shall be made in writing within twenty days after the mailing of the notice to the property owner/operator. Upon receipt of such request, the Safety Director shall set a reasonable time, within thirty days thereafter, and place for a hearing and give due notice thereof to the property owner/operator.
