(f) Other circumstances determined by DMV to be applicable to the particular violation.

(3) Upon review of the criteria listed in section (2) of this rule, and prior to the issuance of a final order, DMV may reassess a civil penalty amount and agree to a civil penalty amount other than that assessed in the Notice of Imposition of Civil Penalty. After review of the criteria listed in section (2) of this rule DMV may:

(a) Cancel, refuse to renew, or refuse to issue a certificate to any person who fails to pay a civil penalty assessed by DMV; or

(b) Waive the imposition of a civil penalty, or modify the amount, and request that a dismantler attend specialized training, as determined by DMV.
