If the request is denied, the department's denial shall, to the extent practical, state with specificity all of the reasons for denial. The department shall make a decision under this subsection and shall provide the person submitting the request with a certificate of completion, as appropriate, within 1 of the following time frames, as applicable:

(a) 150 days after the request was received by the department if the response activity was undertaken without prior approval of the department and the department determines that the response activity complies with the applicable requirements of this part.

(b) 90 days after the request was received by the department if the response activity was undertaken pursuant to a response activity plan that was approved under section 20114b  1 and the department determines that the response activity was completed in accordance with the approved plan.

(4) If the department fails to provide a written response within the time frame required by subsection (3), the response activity is considered approved.
