Section 81.82 - Deregistration procedures

(1) The Council will notify the sponsor, in writing, that a determination of reasonable cause has been made under § 81.81 (relating to when sanctions will be imposed) and that the apprenticeship program may be deregistered unless, within 15 days of the receipt of the notice, the sponsor requests a hearing. The notification shall specify the facts on which the determination is based.

(2) If, within 15 days of the receipt of the notice, the sponsor mails a request for a hearing, the Director will convene a hearing.

(3) The Director will make a final decision on the basis of the record before him, which shall consist of the compliance review file and other evidence presented and, if a hearing was conducted, the proposed findings and recommended decision of the hearing officer. The Director may allow the sponsor a reasonable time to achieve voluntary corrective action. If the decision of the Director is that the apprenticeship program is not operating in accordance with this chapter, the apprenticeship program shall be deregistered. In each case in which deregistration is ordered, the Director may make public notice of the order and will notify the sponsor and the complainant, if any, and the United States Department of Labor. The Council shall inform any sponsor whose program has been deregistered that it may appeal such deregistration to the United States Department of Labor in accordance with the procedures of 29 CFR 30.15.
