Whenever the director has reasonable ground to believe that an establishment or product for which a license has been issued fails to conform to the standards prescribed in the regulations in this article, and that by reason of such failure and of failure of the processor to take prompt corrective measures on notice thereof, the distribution or sale of a licensed product would constitute a danger to health, or that the establishment and processing methods have been so changed as to require, in order to protect the public health, a new showing that the establishment or product meets the standards prescribed in the regulations in this article, he may summarily suspend the license for the establishment or the product, and require the operator to show cause within 15 days, or such other period as may be specified in the order, why the license should not be revoked.
