In the event the superintendent of public instruction denies an online provider's initial application for approval, the online provider may appeal the decision as follows:

(1) The online provider may file a revised application with the superintendent of public instruction no later than fifteen days after the online provider received notice of the denial.

(2) The superintendent of public instruction will designate an official to review the online provider's revised application. The designated official will notify the applicant in writing whether the revised application is approved or denied within forty-five business days of the superintendent's receipt of the revised application. This deadline for acting on the request may be extended by the superintendent of public instruction if additional information is required from the applicant.

(3) Decisions made by the superintendent of public instruction under WAC 392-502-020 and 392-502-060 may be appealed as provided for in RCW 34.05.514.
