Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Administrator may terminate a contract or other agreement between a covered entity and a Write Your Own company if the Administrator— determines that the covered entity has engaged in conduct that is detrimental to the flood insurance program authorized under chapter I; and not later than 14 days before terminating the contract or other agreement, provides notice to the covered entity of the termination. The Administrator shall establish a process for a covered entity to appeal a termination of a contract or other agreement under paragraph (1).
