Sec. 3. (a) The commission may:
(1) suspend a license issued to the owner of a riverboat; or
(2) require an operating agent to suspend operations;
without notice or hearing if the commission determines that the safety or health of patrons or employees would be threatened by the continued operation of the riverboat.
(b) The suspension of an owner's license or an operating agent's operations under this section may remain in effect until the commission determines that the cause for suspension has been abated. The commission may revoke the license if the commission determines that the owner or operating agent has not made satisfactory progress toward abating the hazard.
