Sec. 8.1. Any cemetery authority operating a fraternal cemetery, municipal cemetery, State or federal cemetery, religious cemetery or family burying ground which has been licensed under the provisions of this Act may have such license terminated and may cease to be governed by the licensing provisions of this Act if such cemetery authority:

(1) applies in writing to the Comptroller setting out facts to show the kind of cemetery operated;

(2) sets out facts in such written application identifying the license under which such authority is operating;

(3) requests that such license be relinquished and terminated by the Comptroller.

Upon receipt of such statement, the Comptroller shall determine whether to grant such request. If the Comptroller grants the request to terminate, the license shall be relinquished and such cemetery authority shall cease to be governed by the licensing provisions of this Act. The Comptroller shall not deny such request without first granting a hearing to the cemetery authority. The hearing and review provisions of Sections 8 and 20 of this Act shall apply to the hearing provided for in this Section.
