If the commissioner learns of any violation of any law administered by the division, the commissioner may give the county attorney of the county in which the violation occurred written notice of the facts, whereupon that officer shall institute the proper proceedings against the person charged with the offense.
If the commissioner is of the opinion that the violation is not willful, or is an oversight or of a trivial nature, the commissioner may at the commissioner's discretion fix a time within which the violation shall be corrected and notify the owner, operator, superintendent, or person in charge, and if corrected within the time fixed, then the commissioner shall not cause prosecution to be begun.
