New Jersey § 5:3-44

§ 5:3-44.

a. The department may order, in writing, a temporary cessation of operation of a carnival-amusement

ride or suspend the permit issued for that ride if it has been determined after inspection, in accordance with standards promulgated

by the department, to be hazardous or unsafe or that there has been a violation of P.L.1975, c. 105 ( C.5:3-31 et seq. ) or any rule or regulation promulgated pursuant to that act . Operation shall not resume until such conditions are corrected to the satisfaction

of the department. b. The commissioner shall reinspect a carnival-amusement ride for which a permit has

been suspended within 48 hours of receiving written notice from the owner of the ride

stating that the condition or violation for which the permit was suspended has been

corrected. If, upon reinspection, the commissioner determines that the condition or violation

has been corrected, the commissioner shall reinstate the permit immediately. c. If a person whose permit has been suspended or revoked, or whose application for

a permit has been denied, believes that the violation or condition justifying suspension,

revocation or denial of the permit does not exist, the person may apply to the commissioner

for a reconsideration hearing in accordance with the “Administrative Procedure Act,”

P.L.1968, c. 410 ( C.52:14B-1 et seq. ). The reconsideration hearing shall be conducted, and a final decision issued by the

commissioner, within 48 hours of the receipt of the request, except as extended with

the consent of both parties. Failure to issue a decision shall constitute denial of the requester's appeal. The decision of the commissioner shall be final, subject to the right of the parties

to appeal to the Superior Court of New Jersey, Appellate Division.
