Any person who is or may be adversely affected by a surface coal mining and reclamation operation or a coal exploration operation may notify the Director of the State Regulatory Authority in writing of any alleged failure on the part of the State Regulatory Authority to make adequate and complete inspections as provided in Rules 880-X-11B-.02(1), (2), (3), (4), (5)(a)1. The notification shall include sufficient information to create a reasonable belief that said Rules are not being complied with and to demonstrate that the person is or may be adversely affected. The Director shall within 15 days of receipt of the notification determine whether said Rules are being complied with, and if not, shall immediately order an inspection to remedy the non-compliance. The State Regulatory Authority shall also furnish the complainant with a written statement of the reasons for such determination and the actions, if any, taken to remedy the noncompliance.
