On receipt of a complete request from a sports governing body, the commission shall notify all licensees in writing. All licensees must be given an opportunity to respond to the request. The notification must include the date by which written responses must be submitted to the commission.
The commission shall promptly review the request, any responses, and any other available information and shall decide on the request before the start of the event, if feasible, or as expeditiously as possible. In making its determination, the commission may consult with independent integrity monitoring providers and any other jurisdictions it considers appropriate. The commission may grant the request, in its sole discretion, if it determines that granting the request is necessary to protect the integrity of the event that is the subject of the request. The commission shall notify, in writing, the sports governing body and all licensees of its decision.
On request of a sports governing body or licensee, the commission may reconsider its decision if there is a material change in the circumstances related to the original request.
