(a) Following the verification process, VCP
					 staff shall make a recommendation to the Board regarding the application or
					 supplemental claim. Staff may recommend that the Board allow the application or
					 supplemental claim, deny the application or supplemental claim, or allow the
					 application or supplemental claim in part and deny the application or
					 supplemental claim in part.
(b) In
					 the event that VCP staff recommends denial of an application or supplemental
					 claim in whole or in part, the staff of VCP shall prepare a notice of staff
					 recommendation. Such notice shall include a statement as to why the matter is
					 recommended for denial and shall be mailed to the affected applicant and his or
					 her representative at their last known address of record. The notice shall
					 inform the applicant and his or her representative of the right to a VCP
					 hearing and how to request a hearing.
(c) If the VCP staff recommends denial of an
					 application or supplemental claim in whole or in part, the applicant has 45
					 calendar days from the date of the mailing of the notice of the staff
					 recommendation to request in writing that the matter be set for hearing to
					 contest the staff recommendation. All written requests for hearing shall be
					 mailed or delivered to the headquarters office of the VCP in Sacramento,
					 California, the address for which shall be provided on this notice.
(d) Nothing in this section shall be
					 construed to prevent an applicant or his or her representative from
					 communicating with VCP staff during the period between notice of the staff
					 recommendation and the date of hearing in order to supply additional
					 information. Nothing in this section shall be construed to prevent VCP staff
					 from amending the initial recommendation where additional documentation or
					 information provides the necessary evidence to recommend approval of an
					 application or supplemental claim.
