# §2570.84. Payment of civil penalty.

- (a) The civil penalty must be paid within 60 days of service of the notice of assessment.
- (b) At any time prior to the expiration of the payment period for the assessed penalty, any person who has committed, or knowingly participated in, a breach or violation, or has been alleged by the Secretary to have so committed or participated, may submit a written request for a conference with the Secretary to discuss the calculation of the assessed penalty. A person will be entitled under this section to one such conference per assessment. If such written request is submitted during the 60 day payment period described in [subparagraph (a)](#a), such a request will not toll the running of that payment period.
- (c) The notice of assessment will become a final order (within the meaning of [5 U.S.C. 704](/usc/5/704.md)) on the first day following the 60 day payment period, subject to any tolling caused by a petition to waive or reduce described in [§ 2570.85](/cfr/29/2570.85.md).
