(A) Authorized enforcement officers may request that any person engaged in any activity and/or owning or operating any premises which may cause or contribute to storm water pollution or contamination, illicit discharges and/or discharge of non-storm water to the storm water system, undertake such monitoring activities and/or analyses and furnish such reasonable reports as the officer may specify. The burden, including costs, of these activities, analyses and reports shall bear a reasonable relationship to the need for the monitoring, analyses and reports and the benefits to be obtained. The recipient of such request shall undertake and provide the monitoring, analyses and/or reports requested.
(B) In the event the owner or operator of premises subject to a monitoring and/or analyses order fails to conduct required monitoring and/or analyses and furnish the required reports in the form required, the authorized enforcement officer may cause such monitoring and/or analyses and the cost therefor, including the reasonable additional administrative costs incurred by the city, shall be borne by the owner of the premises. If an invoice demanding payment is not paid within 60 days of the issuance thereof, the costs may be imposed as a lien upon and against the property and continue in existence until the same shall be paid.
