For a period of 30 days after the date of such notice, or such shorter period as the commission may specify in such notice, the sponsor shall not undertake or continue the project.

(d) If the commission finds that the project might have a significant adverse effect upon the scenic, historic, recreational, ecological, conservational or natural resources of the area, it shall issue an order to the sponsor by certified mail, within such 30-day period, stating that the sponsor not undertake or continue such project for an additional period of 60 days immediately following such 30-day period, or until the commission completes its final review as provided under section 9500.8 of this Part, whichever occurs first.

(e) If at the end of such 30-day period the commission has not issued such an order, the sponsor may undertake or continue the project.
