Sec. 4003.35  Final decision on request for reconsideration.

    (a) Except as provided in paragraphs (a)(1) or (a)(2), final

Director, the Department Director (or an official designated by the 
Department Director) will issue the final decision on request for 
reconsideration of a determination other than one described in Sec. 
4003.1(b)(3)(ii).
    (2) The Executive Director (or an official designated by the 
Executive Director) will issue the final decision on a request for 
reconsideration of a determination described in Sec. 4003.1(b)(3)(ii).
    (b) The final decision on a request for reconsideration shall be in 
writing, specify the relief granted, if any, state the reason(s) for the 
decision, and state that the person has exhausted his or her 
administrative remedies.
