The hearing will be held in Room 318 of 1313 <br />Sherman Street, Denver, Colorado, beginning at 9:00 a.m. or as soon thereafter ae <br />the matter can be considered. At that hearing you will have the opportunity to be <br />represented and heard. It will be reiterated that there is reason to believe that <br />you are in violation of the provision noted above. <br />If the Board finds a violation at this hearing, it may issue a Cease and Desist <br />order, assess a Civil Penalty in the amount of $1,000.00 to $5,000.00 (or $50.00 to <br />$200.00 per day if you are found to be eligible) for each day of violation. If you <br />have evidence indicating that the possible violation noted above does not exist or <br />have been corrected, please provide it to us as soon as possible or bring it to the <br />hearing. <br />If you have any questions, please contact Gary Curtiss. <br />Sincerely, <br />MICHAEL B. <br />D iv ieion Directo <br /> <br />CERTIFIED MAIL NO.
