(a) Following the verification process, VCP staff shall make a recommendation to the Board regarding the application or supplemental claim. Staff may recommend that the Board allow the application or supplemental claim, deny the application or supplemental claim, or allow the application or supplemental claim in part and deny the application or supplemental claim in part.
(b) In the event that VCP staff recommends denial of an application or supplemental claim in whole or in part, the staff of VCP shall prepare a notice of staff recommendation. Such notice shall include a statement as to why the matter is recommended for denial and shall be mailed to the affected applicant and his or her representative at their last known address of record. The notice shall inform the applicant and his or her representative of the right to a VCP hearing and how to request a hearing.
(c) If the VCP staff recommends denial of an application or supplemental claim in whole or in part, the applicant has 45 calendar days from the date of the mailing of the notice of the staff recommendation to request in writing that the matter be set for hearing to contest the staff recommendation. All written requests for hearing shall be mailed or delivered to the headquarters office of the VCP in Sacramento, California, the address for which shall be provided on this notice.
(d) Nothing in this section shall be construed to prevent an applicant or his or her representative from communicating with VCP staff during the period between notice of the staff recommendation and the date of hearing in order to supply additional information. Nothing in this section shall be construed to prevent VCP staff from amending the initial recommendation where additional documentation or information provides the necessary evidence to recommend approval of an application or supplemental claim.
