Generated guidance. Confirm the source and its applicability before you act. How we check sources.
According to 49 CFR 386.65, within 30 days of receiving a final agency order, you must do one of the following in writing:
1. Submit your acceptance of the terms of an order directing compliance;
2. Pay the civil penalty (where appropriate); or
3. File an appeal under § 386.67.
If you fail to take one of these actions within that 30-day window, your case may be referred to the Attorney General with a request to file a lawsuit in a U.S. District Court to enforce the compliance order or collect the penalty.
