The Department contends that the penalties assessed are reasonable and should be affirmed. Pursuant to Minn. Stat. § 326B.082, subd. 14 (2020), the Commissioner is authorized to prepare a plan for the assessment of penalties. The statute further provides that penalties assessed in accordance with the plan shall be presumed reasonable.42 The Commissioner has established a plan. The penalties were assessed by the Commissioner in accordance with the plan and are, therefore, presumed reasonable. Respondent has presented no evidence to create a dispute of fact about the reasonableness of the penalties.

For these reasons, the Administrative Law Judge recommends that the Commissioner grant the Department’s Motion.
