(a) The Commissioner of Energy and Environmental Protection may issue, modify or revoke any order to correct or abate any violation of sections 22a-148 to 22a-158, inclusive, including any license issued pursuant to said sections and any regulation adopted pursuant to said sections. Any such order may include remedial measures that are necessary to correct or abate such violations.

(b) Any order issued pursuant to subsection (a) of this section shall be served by certified mail, return receipt requested, or by service by a state marshal or indifferent person. If a state marshal or indifferent person serves such order, a true copy of such order shall be served, and the original, with a return of such service endorsed thereon, shall be filed with the commissioner. Such order shall be deemed to be issued on the date of service or on the date such order is deposited in the mail, as applicable. Any order issued pursuant to subsection (a) of this section shall state the basis on which such order is issued and shall specify a reasonable time for compliance.

(c) Any order issued pursuant to subsection (a) of this section shall be final unless a person aggrieved by such order files a written request for a hearing before the commissioner not later than thirty days after the date of issuance of such order. Upon the receipt of any such request for a hearing, the commissioner shall hold a hearing as soon as practicable thereafter. After any such hearing, the commissioner shall consider all supporting and rebutting evidence and affirm, modify or revoke such order in the commissioner's discretion and shall so notify the recipient of the order by certified mail, return receipt requested, of the commissioner's determination.

(d) The commissioner may, after a hearing held pursuant to subsection (c) of this section, or at any time after the issuance of an order pursuant to subsection (a) of this section, modify such order or extend the time for compliance with such order, provided the commissioner determines such modification or extension is advisable or necessary. Any such modification or extension shall be deemed to be a revision of the existing order and shall not constitute a new order. No person may request a hearing pursuant to subsection (c) of this section or take appeal to the Superior Court pursuant to subsection (e) of this section on such modification or extension.

(e) Any person aggrieved by a final order of the commissioner issued pursuant to this section may appeal such order to the superior court for the judicial district of New Britain in accordance with the provisions of section 4-183.
