61-03-24. Pending administrative actions and permits
If an applicant for any permit processed by the department has an unresolved
administrative order or complaint under this title, the permit may not be processed until the order
is complied with or complaint is resolved. At the discretion of the department, the permit may be
processed if issuing the permit would resolve the administrative order or complaint. If an
applicant is not an individual, this section applies if the applicant is at least twenty-five percent
owned by an individual with an unresolved administrative order or complaint under this title.
