(b) All actions pursuant to this section shall be conducted pursuant to the Uniform Administrative Procedures Act, compiled in title 4, chapter 5.

(c) No licensee whose license has been revoked under this section is entitled to file another application for a license as a well driller or as an installer within one (1) year from the effective date of such revocation, or, if judicial review of such revocation is sought, within one (1) year from the date of the final court order or decree affirming such revocation. Such application, when filed, may be refused by the commissioner, unless the applicant shows good cause why revocation of the license shall not be deemed a bar to the issuance of a new license.
