Based on 49 CFR 107.713, the Associate Administrator may modify, suspend, or terminate an approval under specific circumstances, such as changes in circumstances, inaccurate applications, or violations.
Before taking any of these actions, the regulations require the following practical steps:
* Written Notice: You will receive a written notice explaining the proposed action and the reasons behind it.
* Opportunity to Respond: You have the right to file a written response showing cause why the action should not be taken. You must submit this response within 30 days of receiving the notice.
* Final Decision: After reviewing your response (or after the 30-day window passes without a response), the Associate Administrator will issue a written final decision along with a brief statement of reasons.
* Immediate Effect: If necessary to prevent a risk of significant harm to people or property, the Associate Administrator can declare the action immediately effective right in the initial notice.
