Discipline

9 RDOs completed 11 RDOs received from the Investigative Committee

11 Hearings scheduled 3 Hearings completed 5 Hearings adjourned

Complaints often proceed through recommended discipline orders (RDOs), which, if accepted, mean that a formal hearing is not necessary. Investigated members or permit holders agree to the findings against them and the proposed disciplinary actions. A case manager from the Discipline Committee decides whether to recommend acceptance to the committee of an RDO. Case managers also manage and execute the full hearing process. Our main staff focus in 2018 was to schedule and hold a backlog of hearings.
