§ 1905. Appeals

A town in which a relinquishment under section 1902 of this title is to be effected, which is dissatisfied with the determination of the Agency, may appeal that determination to the Board within 30 days from the date on which the Secretary files the Agency’s certificate under section 1904 of this title. The Board, after hearing the appeal, shall make findings of fact and issue its order and may by the order affirm the determination of the Agency, set the determination aside, or establish reasonable conditions under which the Agency, if it still desires to do so in the case, may relinquish control to the town concerned. Any party may appeal the Board’s decision to the Superior Court. However, there shall be no appeal to a relinquishment under subsection 1903(a) of this title. (Added 1985, No. 269 (Adj.
