§ 350.27 Procedure for withdrawal of approval.
Wording first on file in the 1996 annual edition, superseded by the 2000 annual edition. The section was then removed.
(a) If a State is not performing according to an approved plan or a State is not adequately enforcing the FMCSR and FHMR, or compatible State rules, the Administrator shall issue a written notice of proposed determination of nonconformity to the Governor of the State or the official designated in the plan. The notice shall state the reasons for the proposed determination and inform the State that it may reply in writing within 30 calendar days from the date of the notice. The reply should address the deficiencies cited in the notice and provide documentation as necessary.
(b) The Administrator's decision, after notice and opportunity for comment, will constitute the final decision of the FHWA. An adverse decision will result in immediate cessation of Federal participation in the plan.
(c) If the State does not respond to a notice of proposed determination of nonconformity as provided in paragraph (a) of this section, the proposed determination shall become the Administrator's final decision with the same effect as paragraph (b) of this section.
(d) Any State aggrieved by an adverse decision issued under this part may seek judicial review pursuant to 5 U.S.C. ch. 7.
