If the director, or his designee, denies the application, he must grant the prospective SPRV organizer a hearing upon request.

(D) Upon approval by the director, or his designee, of the application and the issuance of a limited certificate of authority, the SPRV may be acquired or formed and, in accordance with the approved plan of operation, the SPRV may enter into contracts and conduct other activities within the scope of the filed plan of operation.

Any material change that is not disapproved by the director, or his designee, in writing within fifteen days after its submission must be deemed approved.
