Aircraft X left the gate at XA:09. The ramp finalized the flights DSTG and DDLR at XB:16; however; the crew had already sent an ACARS they were number 1 for takeoff and needed weights. That message was sent at the same time the ramp finalized the flight. After the final weights were sent; I noticed the ramp finalized with only 7 bags in the same pit as the hazmat despite there being a warning on the DSTG requiring 15 bags to secure the hazmat. However; because final weights were sent at the same time the crew requested the weights and since they were number 1 for takeoff; there was no way to prevent the aircraft departure upon noticing the ramps failure to secure the DG in accordance with FAA regulations.
Airline ground personnel reported Hazmat loading error with no method to prevent aircraft from taking off.
