				applicant does not meet the requirements for a permit or license under AS 05.15
				and this chapter, the department will deny the permit or license in a written
				notice to the applicant. The department may deny a permit or license for the
				same grounds for which it could be revoked or suspended under AS 05.15 or this
				chapter.
(b) An applicant for a
				permit or license under AS 05.15 may not conduct an activity permitted under AS
				05.15 until the permit or license has been issued by the department and is
				posted at the location of the activity in a manner that is clearly visible to
				the public.

				permit or license is sought, and the renewal application is complete in all
				substantial respects, the department will issue to the permittee or operator a
				temporary permit or license effective January 1 through February 15 of the new
				permit or license year, unless the department has found the same grounds for
				which the permit or license could be revoked or suspended under AS 05.15 or
				this chapter. A temporary multiple-beneficiary permit will apply only to those
				member permittees that were members before the filing of the renewal
				application. The issuance of a temporary permit or license does not preclude
				the department from denying renewal or taking any other action relative to the
				suspension or revocation of a permit or license as may be authorized by statute
				or regulation.
(g) Repealed
				9/3/2005.
(h) If a permit or
				license application, other than an application for renewal, is denied, the
				applicant may request an informal conference within 30 days after the mailing

				filing a brief statement why the person is aggrieved by the denial. After
				receipt of a request for informal conference, the department will apply the
				procedures of
				15 AAC 05.020, to the extent
				consistent with this chapter. If the applicant files a request for informal
				conference, and if the informal conference decision upholds the denial, an
				aggrieved applicant may request a formal hearing under
