Determination of Civil Penalty Amount

(1) In determining the amount of a civil penalty to be assessed for a violation, the Department shall calculate the amount of the civil penalty using the following formula:
(2) If the formula in this rule generates a civil penalty for a single violation that exceeds $10,000, the department shall instead assess a civil penalty of $10,000 for that violation.
(3) If the formula in this rule generates a civil penalty for a single violation that is less than the base penalty amount for that violation, the department shall instead assess the base penalty amount.
(4) The department may, but is not required to, reduce or remit a civil penalty upon request during a contested case hearing on that civil penalty and upon such terms and conditions as the department considers proper and consistent with public health and safety or otherwise consistent with purpose of the Oregon Seed Law.
