N.D. Cent. Code § 23.1-08-19: Administrative procedure and judicial review

A proceeding under this chapter to adopt or modify rules, including emergency orders relating to solid waste management and land protection, or determine compliance with rules of the department, must be conducted in accordance with the provisions of chapter 28-32, and appeals may be taken as provided under that chapter. When an emergency exists requiring immediate action to protect the public health and safety, the department may, without notice or hearing, issue an order reciting the existence of the emergency and requiring action be taken as necessary to meet the emergency. Notwithstanding any provision of this chapter, the order is effective immediately, but on application to the department must be afforded a hearing before the environmental review advisory council within ten days. On the basis of the hearing, the emergency order must be continued, modified, or revoked within thirty days after the hearing.
