(A) Performance bonds. The coordinator may decline to issue or reissue a wastewater discharge permit to any user who has failed to comply with any provision of this chapter, a previous wastewater discharge permit, or order issued hereunder, or any other pretreatment standard or requirement, unless such user first files a satisfactory bond, payable to the city, in a sum not to exceed a value determined by the coordinator to be necessary to achieve consistent compliance.
(B) Liability insurance. The coordinator may decline to issue or reissue a wastewater discharge permit to any user, including without limitation any user who has failed to comply with any provision of this chapter, a previous wastewater discharge permit, or order issued hereunder, or any other pretreatment standard or requirement, unless the user first submits proof that it has obtained financial assurances sufficient to restore or repair damage to the POTW caused by its discharge.
(C) Water supply severance. Whenever a user has violated or continues to violate any provision of this chapter, a wastewater discharge permit, or order issued hereunder, or any other pretreatment standard or requirement, water service to the user may be severed in accordance with applicable law. Service will only recommence, at the user’s expense, after it has satisfactorily demonstrated its ability to comply.
(D) Public nuisances. A violation of any provision of this chapter, a wastewater discharge permit, or order issued hereunder, or any other pretreatment standard or requirement is hereby declared a public nuisance and shall be corrected or abated as directed by the coordinator. Any person(s) creating a public nuisance shall be subject to the provisions of applicable law governing such nuisances, including reimbursing the city for any costs incurred in removing, abating or remedying said nuisance.
