Notice of revocation, suspension or refusal to renew or other action shall be in writing, and mailed by certified mail or delivered in person to the address shown on the application and shall provide for a right to a hearing before the director prior to final action. In the event of an immediate danger to the public health or safety, notice and hearing shall not be required but shall be given as promptly thereafter as practical.
In the collection and transportation of solid waste, the director may revoke the registration of a particular vehicle or vehicles of the licensee found to be in violation of this chapter, such revocation to remain in force until such time as the licensee puts any or all vehicles in compliance with the provisions of this chapter or corrects the violation. Notice of revocation shall be as provided above. Such revocation of the registration of a particular vehicle shall not otherwise affect the license to do business issued under this chapter or affect the registration of complying vehicles of the licensee.
