4. Within 30 days after any wholesale dealer ships any unstamped cigarettes to any destination outside Nevada, the dealer shall send to the state of destination a written notice of the fact of such shipment and whatever other information is required by such state.

5. If a wholesale dealer knowingly or negligently fails to comply with the requirements of this section, the Department may:

(a) Impose a civil penalty pursuant to NRS 370.523;

(b) Suspend or revoke its license or permit, as provided in NRS 370.595; or

(c) Take any combination of the action authorized by paragraphs (a) and (b).
