(2) To timely issue civil penalties as required by 69-4-524 and 69-4-525, MCA, if a call center does not respond within ten days of a request, the department may issue a civil penalty based solely on the number of locate requests identified by the call center that takes locate requests for the area in which the incident occurred.

For good cause shown, a party to whom a civil penalty has been issued pursuant to this section may seek a recalculation of the penalty based on information received from all call centers.
