Part 6244.3100 - REVOCATION

The commissioner of natural resources may at any time revoke all or part of any permit issued under these parts under the following conditions, whenever, in the commissioner's opinion, it is necessary to protect the interests of the public, or to protect the wildlife covered by said permit:

A. The permit holder must be informed in writing of the nature of the revocation and of the conditions which in the commissioner's opinion require such revocation at least 14 days prior to the effective date of the revocation.
B. The permit holder, at any time prior to revocation, shall have the opportunity to apply for an amendment to the permit or to demand a hearing pursuant to part 6244.3000 to contest the revocation, support the holder's proposed amendment, or both.

Upon receipt of such an application or demand, the revocation is stayed until a determination by the commissioner can be made on the matter.

If no such application or demand be made, the permit shall be revoked on the date stated in the revocation notice.

C. Nothing in this part shall preclude legal action by the commissioner at any time for injunctive relief from a permit violation pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, section 97A.041, subdivision 6. All costs associated with seizures of neglected or mistreated animals shall be borne by the owner thereof including the expenses of keeping, disposing of, and treating animals pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, section 343.23.
