01-001-204 Me. Code R. § 3
If deficiencies are found by the Department during the initial license inspection, or during an annual inspection for license renewal, the Department may, in its discretion, issue a temporary license conditioned upon the correction of the deficiencies. A temporary license issued by the Department pursuant to this rule shall be of such duration, as determined by the Department, to be reasonable and necessary for the correction of the deficiencies as noted on the Departmental inspection form. The failure to correct the deficiencies by the end of the temporary license term shall be grounds for the Department to deny an initial license, or for the Department to refuse to renew a license. Any person that the Department has denied a license renewal may request a hearing before the Department in accordance with the Maine Administrative Procedures Act.
