The director shall provide public notice of the issuance of a permit. Any person subject to any provision of this chapter may petition the director to reconsider a decision concerning the issuance, modification, transfer or revocation of a permit, within 30 calendar days of notice of its issuance, or to reconsider any other action by the director taken pursuant to this chapter, within 30 calendar days of notice of that action.
(A) Failure to submit a timely petition for review shall be deemed to be a waiver of the administrative appeal.
(B) In its petition, the appealing party must indicate the permit provisions objected to, the reasons for the objection and the alternative condition, if any, it seeks to place in the permit.
(C) The effectiveness of permit or permit provision shall be stayed pending the appeal.
(D) If the director fails to act within 30 calendar days, a request for reconsideration shall be deemed to be denied. Decisions not to reconsider a permit or other action, not to issue a permit or not to modify a permit shall be considered final administrative actions for purposes of judicial review.
(E) Aggrieved parties seeking judicial review of a final administrative decision must do so by filing a complaint with the Circuit Court of Bay County within 60 calendar days after issuance of that decision.
