Whenever the Division has reason to believe that a person has violated a provision or failed to meet a requirement of this chapter, then the authorized enforcement agency may order compliance by written notice of violation to the responsible person. The notice of violation should include as much information as necessary to identify the alleged violator and any remedial measures, requirements for compliance, or penalties to be imposed. The notice of violation may require without limitation:
(A) The performance of monitoring, analyses, and reporting;
(B) The elimination of illicit discharges or illicit connections;
(C) That violating discharges, practices, or operations shall cease and desist;
(D) The abatement or remediation of stormwater pollution or contamination hazards, and the restoration of any affected property;
(E) Payment of a fine to cover administrative and remediation costs; and
(F) The implementation of source control or treatment BMPs. If abatement of a violation and/or restoration of affected property is required, then the notice of violation shall set forth a deadline within which such remediation or restoration must be completed. The notice of violation shall further advise that, should the violator fail to remediate or restore within the established deadline, the work will be done by a designated governmental agency or a contractor and the expense thereof shall be charged to the violator. A fine and fee structure shall be established by County Board Resolution.
