Sec. 354.21  Suspension of license; revocation.

    Pending final action by the Secretary, any person authorized to 
countersign a license to perform inspection service may, whenever he 
deems such action necessary to assure that any inspection service is 
properly performed, suspend any license to perform inspection service 
issued pursuant to this part, by giving notice of such suspension to the 
respective licensee, accompanied by a statement of the reasons therefor. 
Within 7 days after the receipt of the aforesaid notice and statement of 
reasons, the licensee may file an appeal in writing, with the Secretary, 
supported by any argument or evidence that he may wish to offer as to 
why his license should not be further suspended or revoked. After the 
expiration of the aforesaid 7-day period and consideration of such 
argument and evidence, the Secretary will take such action as he deems 
appropriate with respect to such suspension or revocation. When no 
appeal is filed within the prescribed 7 days, the license to perform 
inspection service is revoked.
