1. If the Board or its designee has reason
to believe, based upon a preponderance of evidence, that a person has violated
any provision of this chapter or any regulation of the Board, the Board may
issue, or authorize its designee to issue, a written administrative citation to
the person. A citation issued pursuant to this section may include, without
limitation, an order to:
(a) Pay an administrative fine for each
violation;
(b) Reimburse the Board for the amount of the
expenses the Board incurred to investigate each violation, not to exceed $150;
and
(c) Correct, at the cost of the person, a
condition resulting from the violation. The order to correct the condition
must:
(1) State the date by which the person
must comply, which must be not less than 15 days after the date on which the
person receives the citation. The Board may, for good cause, extend the date
for compliance with the order.
(2) Describe in detail the actions that
must be taken.
2. If a citation is issued to the holder
of a license pursuant to this section and includes an order to pay an
administrative fine for one or more violations, the amount of the administrative
fine must not exceed the maximum amount authorized by subsection 2 of NRS 637.150 for each violation.
3. Except as otherwise provided in NRS 637.181 , if a citation is issued
pursuant to this section to a person who is not licensed by the Board and
includes an order to pay an administrative fine for one or more violations, the
amount of the administrative fine:
(a) For the first violation, must not be less
than $100 or more than $1,000;
(b) For the second violation, must not be less
than $250 or more than $5,000; and
(c) For the third violation and for each
subsequent violation, must not be less than $500 and not more than $10,000.
4. Any sanctions authorized by this
section are separate from, and in addition to, any other remedy, civil or
criminal, authorized by this chapter.
5. If a person does not pay an
administrative fine imposed pursuant to this section or make satisfactory
payment arrangements with the Board not later than 60 days after the order of
the Board becomes final, the order may be executed upon in the same manner as a
judgment issued by a court.
