A permit may be suspended or revoked, after reasonable notice and hearing, by any chief or issuing authority in the area in which explosives are sold, used, stored, handled, or possessed, if the person to whom the permit was issued sells, uses, stores, or handles the explosives in a manner which is unlawful or which creates an unreasonable hazard to life and property.

The chief or issuing authority taking action to suspend or revoke a permit shall immediately notify the agency who issued the permit of the action taken and shall also immediately notify the State Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation in Sacramento.
