Sec.  478.71  Denial of an application for license.


    Whenever the Director of Industry Operations has reason to believe 
that an applicant is not qualified to receive a license under the 
provisions of Sec.  478.47, he may issue a notice of denial, on Form 
4498, to the applicant. The notice shall set forth the matters of fact 
and law relied upon in determining that the application should be 
denied, and shall afford the applicant 15 days from the date of receipt 
of the notice in which to request a hearing to review the denial. If no 
request for a hearing

is filed within such time, the application shall be disapproved and a 
copy, so marked, shall be returned to the applicant.
