Oil Transfer License. After written notification by the Department and an opportunity to request a hearing, the Department may deny a person’s application for an Oil Transfer License or suspend or revoke a licensee’s Oil Transfer License if the Department determines that: A violation of a provision of the Oil Transfer License or other applicable federal, State, or local requirements related to oil pollution has occurred; A violation of the Environment Article, Annotated Code of Maryland or a regulation adopted under the Environment Article, Annotated Code of Maryland has occurred; False or inaccurate information or data was provided in: An application for an Oil Transfer License; A report, submitted to the Department, on the barrels of oil transferred within a quarter by a licensee; or Any other document submitted to the Department under the terms and conditions of an Oil Transfer License; A licensee has failed to submit to the Department an oil transfer fee payment or accompanying report on the barrels of oil transferred for one or more quarters; Issuance of an Oil Transfer License would pose a risk of harm to public health, safety, or welfare or the environment; or Any other good cause exists for denying, suspending, or revoking an Oil Transfer License.
