Options I came up with:
1) Compare the times first before anything else. If the 7th time was in the first heat (with the low hurdle), I probably let those results stand, especially if 7th was well behind 6th.
2) Throw out the semis, redraw the lanes and run it as a sectioned final.
3) Re-run both heats. I didn't mention in the OP, but this is a one-day meet. While this is an option, I am unlikely to do this unless it is a multi-day meet.
Actual ruling that day:
The referee did #1, but the 7th time came from the 2nd heat (of course). So, he chose to go with option #2 and we ran it as a two-section final.
