proposed in the notice of proposed certificate action.
    (b) If the final order of the Hearing Officer makes a decision on 
the merits, it shall contain a statement of the findings and conclusions 
of law on all material issues of fact and law. If the Hearing Officer 
finds that the allegations of the notice have been proven, but that no 
sanction is required, the Hearing Officer shall make appropriate 
findings and issue an order terminating the notice. If the Hearing 
Officer finds that the allegations of the notice have not been proven, 
the Hearing Officer shall issue an order dismissing the notice. If the 
Hearing Officer finds it to be equitable and in the public interest, the 
Hearing Officer shall issue an order terminating the proceeding upon 
payment by the respondent of a civil penalty in an amount agreed upon by 
the parties.
    (c) If the order is issued in writing, it shall be served upon the 
parties.
