A. Upon the issuance of a COSESCO permit, the applicant has an absolute duty to monitor site conditions and report to the enforcement official any change in circumstances or site conditions the applicant knows, or should know, pose a risk of stormwater discharge in a manner inconsistent with the applicant's SWPPP, NPDES general permit #2, or COSESCO permit.
1. Such report shall be made by the applicant immediately, but in any event within twenty four (24) hours of the change of circumstances or site conditions.
2. Failure to make a timely report shall constitute a violation of this chapter.
B. Any third party may also report to the city site conditions which the third party reasonably believes pose a risk of stormwater discharge in a manner inconsistent with the permittee's SWPPP, general permit #2 and/or COSESCO permit.
C. Upon receiving a changed conditions report, the enforcement official shall conduct an inspection of the site as soon as reasonably possible and will provide the applicant a list of items not meeting compliance. The applicant shall immediately commence corrective actions. Items needing correction must be completed within forty eight (48) hours. The enforcement official may extend the deadline for correction based upon good cause.
D. Unless a report is made to the enforcement official pursuant to the previous sections of this chapter, the official will conduct at least one unannounced inspection of the site during the construction process. As with subsection C of this section, the applicant has the same duty to correct any deficiencies noted during the inspection.
E. The city shall not be responsible for the direct or indirect consequences to the permittee or to third parties for noncompliant conditions undetected by inspection or monitoring.
F. The enforcement official shall be permitted to enter and inspect facilities subject to regulation under this section as often as necessary to determine compliance with this section. If a discharger has security measures that require identification and clearance before entry to its premises, the discharger shall make the necessary arrangements to allow access to the enforcement official to enforce this section.
