A. Safety standards and regulations shall be formulated in the following manner:

1. The division shall either propose adoption of national consensus standards or federal standards or draft such regulations as it considers necessary after conducting sufficient investigation through the division's employees and through consultation with the boiler advisory board and other persons knowledgeable in the business for which the standards or regulations are being formulated.

2. Proposed standards or regulations, or both, shall be submitted to the commission for its approval.

B. Any person who may be adversely affected by a standard or regulation issued pursuant to this article may at any time prior to the sixtieth day after such standard or regulation is promulgated file a complaint challenging the validity of such standard or regulation with the superior court of the county in which the person resides or has his or her principal place of business, for a judicial review of such standard or regulation. The filing of such a complaint shall not, unless otherwise ordered by the court, operate as a stay of the standard or regulation. The determinations of the commission shall be conclusive if supported by substantial evidence in the record considered as a whole.
