46-4A-6. Proceedings before the director
(a) Whenever the director has reason to believe that a violation of any provision of this chapter or any rule or regulation adopted pursuant to this chapter has occurred, he shall attempt to obtain a remedy with the violator or violators by conference, conciliation, or persuasion. When a remedy is obtained through conference, conciliation, or persuasion, such remedy may be set out in a written consent order and signed by both the director and the violator or violators. A written consent order shall be considered a final order.
(b) In the case of failure of such conference, conciliation, or persuasion to effect a remedy to such violation, the director may, after notice and hearing, issue a final order directed to such violator or violators, which order shall specify the provisions of the chapter or rule or regulation which have been violated and shall direct that necessary corrective action as prescribed in such order be taken within a reasonable time.
