§ 1.85   Suspension of operator licenses.

   Whenever grounds exist for suspension of an operator license, as provided in
   § 303(m)   of  the  Communications  Act,  the  Chief  of  the  Wireless
   Telecommunications Bureau, with respect to amateur and commercial radio
   operator licenses, may issue an order suspending the operator license. No
   order of suspension of any operator's license shall take effect until 15
   days' notice in writing of the cause for the proposed suspension has been
   given to the operator licensee, who may make written application to the
   Commission at any time within the said 15 days for a hearing upon such
   order. The notice to the operator licensee shall not be effective until
   actually received by him, and from that time he shall have 15 days in which
   to mail the said application. In the event that physical conditions prevent
   mailing of the application before the expiration of the 15-day period, the
   application shall then be mailed as soon as possible thereafter, accompanied
   by a satisfactory explanation of the delay. Upon receipt by the Commission
   of  such  application  for  hearing, said order of suspension shall be
   designated for hearing by the Chief, Wireless Telecommunications Bureau and
   said  suspension shall be held in abeyance until the conclusion of the
   hearing. Upon the conclusion of said hearing, the Commission may affirm,
   modify,  or revoke said order of suspension. If the license is ordered
   suspended, the operator shall send his operator license to the Mobility
   Division, Wireless Telecommunications Bureau, in Washington, DC, on or
   before the effective date of the order, or, if the effective date has passed
   at the time notice is received, the license shall be sent to the Commission
   forthwith.
