§ 26.5-1-107. Final agency action - authority of executive director - rules.

Hearings conducted by an appointed administrative law judge are considered initial decisions of the department that the executive director, or an executive director's designee, shall review. If exceptions to the initial decision are filed pursuant to section 24-4-105 (14)(a)(I), the review must be in accordance with section 24-4-105 (15); except that the department may, at its discretion, permit a party to file an audio recording in lieu of a written transcript if the party cannot afford a written transcript. The executive director may adopt rules delineating the criteria and process for filing an audio recording in lieu of a written transcript. In the absence of an exception filed pursuant to section 24-4-105 (14)(a)(I), the executive director shall review the initial decision in accordance with a procedure adopted by the executive director. The procedure must be consistent with federal mandates concerning the single state agency requirement. Review by the executive director in accordance with section 24-4-105 (15) or the procedure adopted by the executive director pursuant to this section constitutes final agency action.
