A. Upon receipt of a report from the Auditor General that a school or school district has failed to comply with the Uniform System of Financial Records ("USFR") or the Uniform System of Financial Records for Charter Schools ("USFRCS") within 90 days after having received a notice of noncompliance from the Auditor General, the State Board of Education ("Board") shall review the Auditor General's report to determine whether the school or school district is in noncompliance.

3. If the school or district makes a timely request for a hearing, the hearing will be held pursuant to the hearing procedures specified in R7-2-701 et seq.
