The Director of Public Works may immediately suspend the wastewater treatment service when, in the option of the Director, such suspension is necessary to stop an actual or threatened discharge which presents or may present an imminent or substantial danger to the public health, safety and welfare, or to prevent interference with, or a threat to, the sanitary sewer collection system. If the person or permit holder notified of such suspension fails to comply with the order, the Director of Public Works may take steps necessary to block or sever the connection to the sanitary sewer collection system. The person or permit holder may file a written appeal to such order with the city of the order being made. The service shall remain suspended during the appeal period. Service shall be re-stated when the condition causing the threat is corrected, or if the person successfully appeals the Directorof Public Works’ order.
