The RSA director's initial permit review under KPB 14.40.120 is appealable to the RSA board. An appeal to the RSA board must be filed within 10
days of the distribution date of the RSA director's written decision. The appeal shall
be in writing on a form provided by the RSA and shall state the reasons the appellant
believes the RSA director's decision to be in error, including references to code
sections violated by the RSA director's decision. The permittee may request review
by the RSA board following the procedures and deadlines under this provision when
the RSA director issues a cease and desist order under KPB 14.40.300(C) or revokes a permit under KPB 14.40.300(D). Whether the RSA board reviews a permit on appeal or provides the initial permit
review, the applicant for a permit may appeal the RSA board's determination to the
superior court in Kenai, Alaska, pursuant to Part 6 of the Alaska Rules of Appellate
procedure. Nothing in this regulation shall prohibit utilization of a mutually-acceptable
alternative dispute resolution procedure.
