(a)The department shall review the plan for compliance with this chapter and shall approve, disapprove, or conditionally approve the plan within 90 days of receipt of the plan. If the department fails to act within 90 days of the receipt of the plan, the plan shall be deemed approved.

(b)If the department disapproves the plan pursuant to subdivision (a), the department shall explain, in writing, how the plan does not comply with this chapter, and the mattress recycling organization shall resubmit a plan to the department. If the department finds that the plan resubmitted by the organization does not comply with the requirements of this chapter, the mattress recycling organization shall not be deemed in compliance with this chapter until the organization submits a plan that the department finds complies with the requirements of this chapter.

(c)The approved plan shall be a public record, except that financial, production, or sales data reported to the department by the mattress recycling organization is not public record for purposes of the California Public Records Act (Division 10 (commencing with Section 7920.000) of Title 1 of the Government Code) and shall not be open to public inspection.
