The commissioner may:(a)
Require that the association notify the insureds of the insolvent insurer and any other interested parties of the determination of insolvency and of their rights under this part 5. Such notification shall be by first-class mail at their last known addresses, where available, but if sufficient information for notification by mail is not available, notice by publication in a newspaper of general circulation shall be sufficient.(b)
