North Dakota Century Code Title 50. Public Welfare § 50-31-05. Issuance, suspension, and revocation of license

1. The department may issue licenses to operate substance use disorder treatment programs, for a period of three years, which are found to comply with the provisions of this chapter and rules adopted by the department.

2. The department may suspend or revoke a license if a program violates any of the rules adopted by the department.

3. Before a license may be suspended or revoked, written notice by registered mail, personal delivery, or electronic mail must be given to the licenseholder. The licenseholder must be furnished with a copy of the notice by registered mail or personal delivery. If a license is revoked, a new application for a license may be considered by the department when the conditions upon which the revocation were based have been corrected and evidence of this fact has been satisfactorily furnished. A new license may then be granted after proper inspection has been made and the applicant has complied with all rules adopted by the department. Within thirty days after service of the written charges, the applicant or licensee may submit to the department a written request for an administrative hearing as provided in chapter 28-32.
