Subp. 2. Revocation and suspension. A license may be revoked, suspended, or modified, in whole or in part: A. for any materially false statement in an application or any false statement of fact required under this chapter; B. because of conditions revealed by an application, a statement of fact, a report, a record, an inspection, or other means that would warrant the commissioner to refuse to grant a license on an original application; or C. for violation of or failure to observe any of the terms and provisions of this chapter or an order of the commissioner. Subp. 3. Notice of noncompliance. Except in cases of willfulness or when the public health, interest, or safety requires otherwise, the commissioner shall not modify, suspend, or revoke a license unless, prior to the institution of proceedings, facts or conduct that warrant such action are called to the attention of the licensee in writing and the licensee is accorded an opportunity to demonstrate or achieve compliance with all lawful requirements. Subp. 4. Possession upon modification. Upon revocation, suspension, or modification of a license, the commissioner may immediately take possession of all radioactive material held by the licensee.
