966.11—Appeal.
The initial or tentative decision will become final and an order to that effect will be issued by the Judicial Officer thirty (30) days after issuance and receipt by the parties of the initial or tentative decision unless the Judicial Officer, in his discretion, grants review upon appeal by either party, or on his own motion. If an appeal is denied, the initial or tentative decision becomes the final agency decision upon the issuance of such denial. The Judicial Officer's decision on appeal is the final agency decision with no further right of appeal within the agency.
