 15.9   of complying with this section.  The commissioner shall provide 
 15.10  ~~reimbursement~~ an equal pro rata share to the public employer out

 15.24  dependent for purposes of this section during the period of time 
 15.25  the person is covered under another group health plan.  
 15.26     (c) "Firefighter" has the meaning given in Minnesota 
 15.27  Statutes 2000, section 424.03, but does not include volunteer 
 15.28  firefighters. 
 15.29     (d) "Disabling injury" is a physical harm that occurred in 
 15.30  the line of duty.  Posttraumatic stress disorders and emotional 
 15.31  and psychological conditions, which may result from the peace 
 15.32  officer's or firefighter's duties, are not covered under this 
 15.33  section. 
 15.34     Sec. 9.  [299A.80] [ADMINISTRATIVE POWERS AND PENALTIES; 
 15.35  GENERAL.] 
 15.36     Subdivision 1.  [DEFINITIONS.] (a) For purposes of sections 
 16.1   299A.80 to 299A.803, the terms defined in this subdivision have 
 16.2   the meanings given them. 
 16.3      (b) "Administrative agent" means a person or entity

 16.17  apply to administrative agents licensed by or subject to other 
 16.18  authority of the commissioner.

 16.20  commissioner to issue an order or assess penalties under 
 16.21  sections 299A.80 to 299A.803 is in addition to other remedies 
 16.22  available under statutory or common law, except that the state 
 16.23  may not seek a civil penalty under any other law for a violation 
 16.24  covered by an administrative penalty order.  The payment of a 
 16.25  penalty does not preclude the use of other enforcement 
 16.26  provisions, under which civil fines are not assessed, in 
 16.27  connection with the violation for which the penalty was assessed.
 16.28     Subd. 4.  [ACCESS TO INFORMATION AND PROPERTY.] The 
 16.29  commissioner, an employee, or an agent authorized by the 
 16.30  commissioner, upon presentation of credentials, may: 
 16.31     (1) examine and copy any books, papers, records, memoranda, 
 16.32  or data of an administrative agent; and 
 16.33     (2) enter upon any property, public or private, of an 
 16.34  administrative agent to take actions authorized under statute, 
 16.35  rule, or other authority, including obtaining information from 
 16.36  an administrative agent who has a duty to provide information 
 17.1   under statute, rule, or other authority, taking steps to remedy 
 17.2   violations, or conducting surveys or investigations. 
 17.3      Subd. 5.  [FALSE INFORMATION.] (a) An administrative agent 
 17.4   may not: 
 17.5      (1) make a false material statement, representation, or 
 17.6   certification in a required document; 
 17.7      (2) omit material information from a required document; or 
 17.8      (3) alter, conceal, or fail to file or maintain a required

 17.14  proceed on behalf of the state to enforce penalties that are due 
 17.15  and payable under this section in any manner provided by law for 
 17.16  the collection of debts. 
 17.17     (b) The attorney general may petition the district court to 
 17.18  file the administrative order as an order of the court.  At any 
 17.19  court hearing, the only issues parties may contest are 
 17.20  procedural and notice issues.  Once entered, the administrative 
 17.21  order may be enforced in the same manner as a final judgment of 
 17.22  the district court. 
 17.23     (c) If an administrative agent fails to pay the penalty, 
 17.24  the attorney general may bring a civil action in district court 
 17.25  seeking payment of the penalties, injunctive relief, or other 
 17.26  appropriate relief including monetary damages, attorney fees, 
 17.27  costs, and interest. 
 17.28     Subd. 7.  [RECOVERY OF LITIGATION COSTS AND EXPENSES.] In 
 17.29  any judicial action brought by the attorney general for civil 
 17.30  penalties, injunctive relief, or an action to compel performance 
 17.31  pursuant to this section, if the state finally prevails, and if 
 17.32  the proven violation was willful, the state, in addition to 
 17.33  other penalties provided by law, may be allowed an amount 
 17.34  determined by the court to be the reasonable value of all or 
 17.35  part of the litigation expenses incurred by the state.  In 
 17.36  determining the amount of the litigation expenses to be allowed, 
 18.1   the court must give consideration to the economic circumstances 
 18.2   of the defendant. 
 18.3      Subd. 8.  [EDUCATION AND COMPLIANCE ACCOUNT; MONEY 
 18.4   ALLOCATED.] An education and compliance account is created for 
 18.5   the deposit of administrative penalty order receipts.  Of the 
 18.6   funds deposited in this account, the commissioner is authorized 
 18.7   to expend up to $5,000 per fiscal year for education and 
 18.8   compliance activities related to the regulated parties affected 
 18.9   by this chapter.  At the end of each biennium, all money not 
 18.10  expended reverts to the general fund. 
 18.11     Subd. 9.  [PLAN FOR USING ADMINISTRATIVE PENALTIES AND 
 18.12  CEASE AND DESIST AUTHORITY.] The commissioner must prepare a 
 18.13  plan for using the administrative penalty and cease and desist 
 18.14  authority in this section.  The commissioner must provide a 
 18.15  30-day period for public comment on the plan.  The plan must be 
 18.16  finalized by July 1, 2004, and may be modified as necessary upon 
 18.17  subsequent notice and opportunity for comment. 
 18.18     Sec. 10.  [299A.801] [ORDERS AND INJUNCTIONS.] 
 18.19     Subdivision 1.  [CORRECTIVE ORDERS.] (a) The commissioner 
 18.20  may issue corrective orders that require an administrative agent 
 18.21  to correct a violation of statute, rule, or other authority.  
 18.22  The corrective order must state the deficiencies that constitute 
 18.23  the violation of the specific statute, rule, or other authority, 
 18.24  and the time by which the violation must be corrected. 
 18.25     (b) The administrative agent to whom the order was issued 
 18.26  must provide information to the commissioner, by the due date 
 18.27  stated in the order, demonstrating that the violation has been 
 18.28  corrected or that the administrative agent has developed a 
 18.29  corrective plan acceptable to the commissioner.  The 
 18.30  commissioner must determine whether the violation has been 
 18.31  corrected and notify the administrative agent subject to the 
 18.32  order of the commissioner's determination. 
 18.33     (c) If the administrative agent believes that the 
 18.34  information contained in the commissioner's corrective order is 
 18.35  in error, the administrative agent may ask the commissioner to 
 18.36  reconsider the parts of the order that are alleged to be in 
 19.1   error.  The request must: 
 19.2      (1) be in writing; 
 19.3      (2) be delivered to the commissioner by certified mail 
 19.4   within seven calendar days after receipt of the order; 
 19.5      (3) specify which parts of the order for corrective action 
 19.6   are alleged to be in error and explain why they are in error; 
 19.7   and 
 19.8      (4) provide documentation to support the allegation of 
 19.9   error. 
 19.10     (d) The commissioner must respond to requests made under 
 19.11  paragraph (c) within 15 calendar days after receiving a 
 19.12  request.  A request for reconsideration does not stay the 
 19.13  corrective order; however, after reviewing the request for 
 19.14  reconsideration, the commissioner may provide additional time to 
 19.15  comply with the order if necessary.  The commissioner's 
 19.16  disposition of a request for reconsideration is final. 
 19.17     Subd. 2.  [CEASE AND DESIST ORDER.] The commissioner, or an 
 19.18  employee of the department designated by the commissioner, may 
 19.19  issue an order to cease an activity otherwise authorized by 
 19.20  statute, rule, or other authority if continuation of the 
 19.21  activity would result in an immediate risk to public safety.  An 
 19.22  order issued under this subdivision is effective for a maximum 
 19.23  of 72 hours.  In conjunction with issuing the cease and desist 
 19.24  order, the commissioner may post a sign to cease an activity 
 19.25  until the cease and desist order is lifted and the sign is 
 19.26  removed by the commissioner.  To restrain activities for a 
 19.27  period beyond 72 hours, the commissioner must seek an injunction 
 19.28  or take other administrative action authorized by law.  The 
 19.29  issuance of a cease and desist order does not preclude the 
 19.30  commissioner from pursuing any other enforcement action 
 19.31  available to the commissioner. 
 19.32     Subd. 3.  [ACTION FOR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF.] In addition to 
 19.33  any other remedy provided by law, the commissioner may bring an 
 19.34  action for injunctive relief in the district court in Ramsey 
 19.35  county or, at the commissioner's discretion, in the district 
 19.36  court in the county in which a violation of a statute, rule, or 
 20.1   other authority has occurred to enjoin the violation. 
 20.2      Sec. 11.  [299A.802] [ADMINISTRATIVE PENALTY ORDERS.] 
 20.3      Subdivision 1.  [GENERAL.] The commissioner may issue an 
 20.4   order requiring violations to be corrected and administratively 
 20.5   assess monetary penalties on administrative agents for 
 20.6   violations of statute, rule, or other authority.  The maximum 
 20.7   amount of an administrative penalty order is $10,000 for each 
 20.8   administrative agent for all violations identified in an 
 20.9   inspection or review of compliance. 
 20.10     Subd. 2.  [AMOUNT OF PENALTY; CONSIDERATIONS.] (a) In 
 20.11  determining the amount of a penalty to be assessed under this 
 20.12  section, the commissioner may consider: 
 20.13     (1) the willfulness of the violation; 
 20.14     (2) the gravity of the violation, including damage to 
 20.15  consumers or the state; 
 20.16     (3) the history of past violations; 
 20.17     (4) the number of violations; 
 20.18     (5) the economic benefit gained by the administrative agent 
 20.19  by allowing or committing the violation; and 
 20.20     (6) other factors as justice may require, if the 
 20.21  commissioner specifically identifies the additional factors in 
 20.22  the commissioner's order. 
 20.23     (b) For a violation after an initial violation, the 
 20.24  commissioner, in determining the amount of a penalty, must 
 20.25  consider the factors in paragraph (a) and the following factors: 
 20.26     (1) similarity of the most recent previous violation and 
 20.27  the violation to be penalized; 
 20.28     (2) time elapsed since the last violation; 
 20.29     (3) number of previous violations; and 
 20.30     (4) response of the administrative agent to the most recent 
 20.31  previous violation identified. 
 20.32     Subd. 3.  [CONTENTS OF ORDER.] (a) An order assessing an 
 20.33  administrative penalty under this section must include: 
 20.34     (1) a concise statement of the facts alleged to constitute 
 20.35  a violation; 
 20.36     (2) a reference to the portion of the statute, rule, 
 21.1   variance, order, or stipulation agreement or the term or 
 21.2   condition of a permit that has been violated; 
 21.3      (3) a statement of the amount of the administrative penalty 
 21.4   to be imposed and the factors upon which the penalty is based; 
 21.5   and 
 21.6      (4) a statement of the administrative agent's right to 
 21.7   review the order. 
 21.8      (b) An administrative penalty order may be combined with a 
 21.9   corrective order under section 299A.801. 
 21.10     Subd. 4.  [FORGIVENESS.] Except as provided in subdivision 
 21.11  5, paragraph (b), if the commissioner determines that the 
 21.12  violation has been corrected or the administrative agent to whom 
 21.13  the order was issued has developed a corrective plan acceptable 
 21.14  to the commissioner, the penalty must be forgiven. 
 21.15     Subd. 5.  [DUE DATE.] (a) Unless the administrative agent 
 21.16  requests review of the order under subdivision 6 before the 
 21.17  penalty is due, the penalty in the order is due and payable: 
 21.18     (1) on the 31st day after the order was received, if the 
 21.19  administrative agent subject to the order fails to provide 
 21.20  information to the commissioner showing that the violation has 
 21.21  been corrected or that appropriate steps have been taken toward 
 21.22  correcting the violation; or 
 21.23     (2) on the 20th day after the administrative agent receives 
 21.24  the commissioner's determination under paragraph (b), if the 
 21.25  administrative agent subject to the order has provided 
 21.26  information to the commissioner that the commissioner determines 
 21.27  is not sufficient to show the violation has been corrected or 
 21.28  that appropriate steps have been taken toward correcting the 
 21.29  violation. 
 21.30     (b) For repeated or serious violations, the commissioner 
 21.31  may issue an order with a penalty that will not be forgiven 
 21.32  after the corrective action is taken.  The penalty is due by 31 
 21.33  days after the order was received unless review of the order 
 21.34  under subdivision 6 has been sought. 
 21.35     (c) Interest at the rate established in section 549.09 
 21.36  begins to accrue on penalties under this subdivision on the 31st 
 22.1   day after the order with the penalty was received. 
 22.2      Subd. 6.  [EXPEDITED ADMINISTRATIVE HEARING.] (a) Within 30 
 22.3   days after receiving an order or within 20 days after receiving 
 22.4   notice that the commissioner has determined that a violation has 
 22.5   not been corrected or appropriate steps have not been taken, the 
 22.6   administrative agent subject to an order under this section may 
 22.7   request an expedited hearing, using the procedures of Minnesota 
 22.8   Rules, parts 1400.8510 to 1400.8612, or their successor rules, 
 22.9   to review the commissioner's action.  The hearing request must 
 22.10  specifically state the reasons for seeking review of the order.  
 22.11  The administrative agent to whom the order is directed and the 
 22.12  commissioner are the parties to the expedited hearing.  The 
 22.13  commissioner must notify the administrative agent to whom the 
 22.14  order is directed of the time and place of the hearing at least 
 22.15  15 days before the hearing.  The expedited hearing must be held 
 22.16  within 30 days after a request for hearing has been filed with 
 22.17  the commissioner unless the parties agree to a later date. 
 22.18     (b) All written arguments must be submitted within ten days 
 22.19  following the close of the hearing.  The hearing must be 
 22.20  conducted under Minnesota Rules, parts 1400.8510 to 1400.8612, 
 22.21  or their successor rules, as modified by this subdivision.  The 
 22.22  office of administrative hearings, in consultation with the 
 22.23  agency, may adopt rules specifically applicable to cases under 
 22.24  this section. 
 22.25     (c) The administrative law judge must issue a report making 
 22.26  recommendations about the commissioner's action to the 
 22.27  commissioner within 30 days following the close of the record.  
 22.28  The administrative law judge may not recommend a change in the 
 22.29  amount of the proposed penalty unless the administrative law 
 22.30  judge determines that, based on the factors in subdivision 1, 
 22.31  the amount of the penalty is unreasonable.  
 22.32     (d) If the administrative law judge makes a finding that 
 22.33  the hearing was requested solely for purposes of delay or that 
 22.34  the hearing request was frivolous, the commissioner may add to 
 22.35  the amount of the penalty the costs charged to the agency by the 
 22.36  office of administrative hearings for the hearing. 
 23.1      (e) If a hearing has been held, the commissioner may not 
 23.2   issue a final order until at least five days after receipt of 
 23.3   the report of the administrative law judge.  Within those five 
 23.4   days, the administrative agent to whom an order is issued may 
 23.5   comment to the commissioner on the recommendations and the 
 23.6   commissioner must consider the comments.  The final order may be 
 23.7   appealed in the manner provided in sections 14.63 to 14.69. 
 23.8      (f) If a hearing has been held and a final order issued by 
 23.9   the commissioner, the penalty must be paid by 30 days after the 
 23.10  date the final order is received unless review of the final 
 23.11  order is requested under sections 14.63 to 14.69.  If review is 
 23.12  not requested or the order is reviewed and upheld, the amount 
 23.13  due is the penalty, together with interest accruing from 31 days 
 23.14  after the original order was received at the rate established in 
 23.15  section 549.09. 
 23.16     Subd. 7.  [MEDIATION.] In addition to review under 
 23.17  subdivision 6, the commissioner may enter into mediation 
 23.18  concerning an order issued under this section if the 
 23.19  commissioner and the administrative agent to whom the order is 
 23.20  issued both agree to mediation.
