(A)
When the Workforce Manager finds that a user has violated, or continues to violate, a discharge permit, any provision of this chapter or order issued hereunder, the Workforce Manager may serve upon that user a written notice of violation setting forth the nature of the violation(s). The notice may also include specific corrective actions and compliance schedules to which the Workforce Manager requires the user to adhere. Within 30 days of the receipt of this notice, the user shall submit to the Workforce Manager a written explanation of the violation and a plan for the satisfactory correction and prevention thereof, consistent with the terms of the notice (to include specific corrective actions and compliance schedules).
(B) Compliance with the conditions, requirements and terms of this notice shall not be construed to relieve the user of its obligation to comply with its discharge permit, which remains in full force and effect, nor does such compliance excuse violations occurring before or after receipt of this notice of violation. Additional enforcement action may be pursued if corrective actions are not accomplished as scheduled. The Workforce Manager expressly reserves the right to seek any and all remedies available under any provision of this chapter for any violations cited by the notice. Nothing in this chapter shall limit the authority of the city to take any action, including emergency actions or any other enforcement action, without first issuing a notice of violation.
