(b)  The provisions of the Uniform Administrative Procedures Act, compiled in title 4, chapter 5, shall govern all matters and procedures respecting the hearing and judicial review of any contested case arising under this part.

Upon a finding that the exhibitor's federal license, if applicable, has been revoked, the fire marshal shall revoke the exhibitor's state license. An exhibitor's license that has been revoked solely for failure to have the required insurance may be reinstated upon proof by the exhibitor that the required insurance has been obtained.
