  (2) If the incentives received by the person or site included exemptions from state or federal requirements, the person or site must be in full compliance with all requirements for which exemptions were provided within 30 days after notice of termination is mailed to the executive director. If a new permit, permit amendment, or other authorization is necessary in order for the person to achieve compliance, an administratively complete application for such authorization shall be submitted to the executive director within 30 days after notice of termination is mailed to the executive director.

(b) Termination by the executive director.

  (1) Noncompliance with the terms and conditions of regulatory incentives offered under the Strategically Directed Regulatory Structure, a Regulatory Flexibility Order, an environmental management system, or this chapter, may result in termination of the regulatory incentives.

  (2) The executive director may also terminate incentives under this chapter if the executive director finds that the person or site receiving incentives is not complying with other applicable legal requirements.

  (3) If the executive director determines that a person who is provided regulatory incentives under this subchapter no longer meets the requirements of this subchapter, the executive director shall notify the person in writing within 90 days after the deficiencies are documented.

  (4) If the noted deficiencies are not corrected and supporting documentation submitted within 90 days after receipt of the notification, regulatory incentives shall be terminated.

  (5) If the incentives received by the person or site included exemptions from state or federal requirements, the person or site must be in full compliance with all requirements for which exemptions were provided within 30 days after termination by the executive director. If a new permit, permit amendment, or other authorization is necessary in order for the person to achieve compliance, an administratively complete application for such permit or authorization shall be submitted within 30 days after termination by the executive director. Upon written request, the executive director may allow an additional amount of time not to exceed 90 days from the date the incentive is terminated for a person to achieve compliance with applicable legal requirements or apply for proper authorization.
