(1) Any shoreline permit granted pursuant to this Program may be rescinded or modified upon a finding by the Hearing Examiner that the permittee or his/her successors in interest have not complied with conditions attached thereto. A specific monitoring plan may be required as a condition of a permit with specific reporting requirements. If the monitoring plan is not implemented, the permittee may be found to be noncompliant. The results of a monitoring plan may show a development to be out of compliance with specific performance standards, which may be the basis for findings of noncompliance.

(2) The Administrator shall initiate rescission or modification proceedings by serving written notice of noncompliance to the permittee or his/her successors and notifying parties of record at the original address provided in application review files.

(3) The Hearing Examiner shall hold a public hearing no sooner than 15 days following such service of notice, unless the applicant/proponent files notice of intent to comply and the Administrator grants a specific schedule for compliance. If compliance is not achieved, the Administrator shall schedule a public hearing before the Hearing Examiner. Upon considering written and oral testimony taken at the hearing, the Hearing Examiner shall make a decision in accordance with the above procedure for shoreline permits.

(4) These provisions do not limit the Administrator, the Prosecuting Attorney, the Department of Ecology, or the Attorney General from administrative, civil, injunctive, declaratory or other remedies provided by law, or from abatement or other remedies.
