58 Pa. Code § 51.109. Final administrative action.

§ 51.109. Final administrative action.

 (a)  When exceptions are filed to the proposed report or which are disposed of under §  51.106 (relating to procedure in lieu of hearing), the members of the Commission will review the case file, together with other matters of record and filings in the proceedings. At a public meeting convened under 65 Pa.C.S. Chapter 7 (relating to the Sunshine Act), the Commission will consider the matter. Unless ordered by the Commission, oral argument will not be permitted at the public meeting nor will the respondent be permitted to reargue or retry matters that were raised or could have been raised before the presiding officer. The Com mission will vote to approve or disapprove a proposed report or, in cases under §  51.106, to issue an order as appropriate.

 (b)  The action by the Commission will be considered the final administrative adjudication with respect to the forfeiture of civil penalties. The dam owner or permittee will be notified in writing of the final action. The final order will be considered officially entered on the date it is mailed or otherwise served, whichever comes first.

 (c)  If, after the entry of a final order, the dam owner or permittee files a timely petition for review or judicial appeal of the adjudication, the owner or permittee may apply in writing to the Executive Director for a stay of the effective date of the order. The filing of a petition for review or judicial appeal does not operate as an automatic stay. The Executive Director may grant a stay for good cause shown.
