(a) Unless otherwise specifically provided, a violation of this chapter is subject to a fine of $300.00 for a first offense, $500.00 for a second offense committed within a one-year period, and $1,000.00 for a third or subsequent offense committed within a one-year period.
(b) The Superintendent of Police, or, in with respect to Section 8-32-090, the Commissioner of Health, or the Superintendent’s or Commissioner’s designee, may require any person found liable for a violation of this chapter to submit a compliance plan, indicating measures taken or to be taken to prevent similar violations in the future. The required compliance plan shall be submitted to the appropriate department within 30 days of the order requiring it, or such other time period as is set forth in the order. Failure to respond as ordered shall be an additional offense.
(c) If a person has submitted a compliance plan pursuant to subsection (b) of this section, and the compliance plan has been approved by the appropriate department, that person shall comply with the approved compliance plan unless an alternate plan is approved by the appropriate department.
(d) Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to impair any cause of action or legal remedy therefor of any person or the public for injury or damage arising from the emission of noise or earthshaking vibration in such place or manner, or at such levels, as to constitute a common law nuisance. Activity which is in accordance with a compliance plan does not absolve liability for activity in violation of this chapter.
