The Commission may at its sole discretion allow for public comment at the hearing.

(b) If the deficiencies in administration and enforcement are not remedied or corrected within 90 days after receipt of Commission notification of such violation, the Commission shall assume the duties of the local permit-letting agency until the local permit-letting agency indicates to the Commission in writing its willingness and ability to perform in conformance with its approved local implementation and enforcement plan.
