a. Upon receipt of the application for registration in proper form, and accompanied by proper fee, the agency shall, within 10 business days, issue a notice of filing to the applicant. Within 90 days from the date of the notice of filing, the agency shall enter an order registering the development or rejecting the registration. If no order of rejection is entered within 90 days from the date of notice of filing, the development shall be deemed registered unless the applicant has consented in writing to a delay.
b. If the agency affirmatively determines that the requirements of section 9 of this act have been met, it shall enter an order registering the development.
c. If the agency determines upon inquiry and examination that any of the requirements of section 9 of this act have not been met, the agency shall notify the applicant that the application for registration must be corrected in such particulars, within 30 days, as designated by the agency. If the requirements are not met within the time allowed, the agency may enter an order rejecting the registration which shall include the findings of fact upon which the order is based. The order rejecting the registration shall not become effective until 20 days after the lapse of the aforesaid specified period during which 20-day period the applicant may petition for reconsideration and shall be entitled to a hearing. Such order of rejection shall not take effect, in any event, until such time as the hearing, once requested, has been given to the applicant.
