Due to the complexity, factual matters not denied will be considered admitted, and failure to raise a defense will be a waiver of the defense. New matters alleged in the request for hearing are denied by DEQ unless admitted in subsequent stipulation.(5) DEQ shall refer all hearing requests received under subsection (3) to the Office of Administrative Hearings within five business days of receipt of the request. The cases shall be heard on an expedited timeline to the greatest extent practicable. All reasonable efforts shall be made for DEQ or the EQC to issue a final order within 90 days of receipt of the hearing request. [NOTE: This rule is included in the State of Oregon Clean Air Act Implementation Plan that EQC adopted under OAR 340-200-0040.]
