(a) In accordance with Sections 42051.2 and 42051.3, the department shall review a plan, plan amendment, or annual report submitted by a PRO for compliance with this chapter and shall approve, conditionally approve, or reject the document within 90 calendar days of receipt of the document, or notify the PRO of the timeline for determination if additional time is needed.

(b)(1) If the department disapproves a plan, plan amendment, or annual report, the department shall explain, in writing, how the plan, plan amendment, or annual report is noncompliant, and the PRO shall resubmit the plan, plan amendment, or annual report with any additional information, modifications, or corrections to the department within 30 calendar days.

(2) If the department finds that the plan, plan amendment, or annual report resubmitted by the PRO still does not comply with the requirements of this section, the department shall direct changes to the document and require the PRO to resubmit the plan, plan amendment, or annual report to the department within 30 calendar days.

(3) If the department determines the PRO has not incorporated the changes into the plan, plan amendment, or annual report, the department shall determine the PRO to be out of compliance with this chapter and shall take enforcement action pursuant to Article 5 (commencing with Section 42080).

(4) If a PRO's updated plan, plan amendment, or annual report is rejected by the department, the department may allow the previously approved plan to remain in effect.

(c) An approved annual report and approved plan shall be a public record, except that financial, production, or sales data reported to the department by the PRO is not a public record for purposes of the California Public Records Act (Division 10 (commencing with Section 7920.000) of Title 1 of the Government Code) and shall not be open to public inspection.  The department shall release financial, production, or sales data in summary form so the information cannot be attributable to a specific producer, retailer, or wholesaler, or to any other entity.
