910. If the permittee fails to request a hearing as provided in R645-401-810, the proposed assessment will become a final order of the Division and the penalty assessed will become due and payable upon expiration of the time allowed to request a hearing and upon the Division fulfilling its responsibilities under UCA 40-10-20(3)(e).

940. If the review results in an order increasing the penalty, the permittee will pay the difference to the Division within 15 days after the order is received by such permittee.
