# §670.15. Modification, suspension, and revocation.

- (a) The Director may modify, suspend, or revoke, in whole or in part, any permit issued under this subpart:
  - (1) In order to make the permit consistent with any change to any regulation in this part made after the date of issuance of this permit;
  - (2) If there is any change in conditions which make the permit inconsistent with the purpose of the Act and the regulations in this part; or
  - (3) In any case in which there has been any violation of any term or condition of the permit, any regulation in this part, or any provision of the Act.
- (b) Whenever the Director proposes any modifications, suspension, or revocation of a permit under this section, the permittee shall be afforded opportunity, after due notice, for a hearing by the Director with respect to such proposed modification, suspension or revocation. If a hearing is requested, the action proposed by the Director shall not take effect before a decision is issued by him after the hearing, unless the proposed action is taken by the Director to meet an emergency situation.
- (c) Notice of the modification, suspension, or revocation of any permit by the Director shall be published in the Federal Register, within 10 days from the date of the Director's decision.
