(A) The city may suspend the wastewater treatment service or wastewater contribution permit of a user when suspension is necessary, in the opinion of the city, to stop an actual or threatened discharge which presents or may present an imminent or substantial endangerment to the health or welfare of persons or to the environment, or may cause interference to the POTW or the city to violate any condition of its NPDES/KPDES permit.
(B) Any person notified of a suspension of his wastewater treatment service or wastewater contribution permit shall immediately stop or eliminate the contribution. In the event of a failure of the person to comply voluntarily with the suspension order, the city shall take such steps as deemed necessary, including, but not limited to, immediate severance of the sewer connection, immediate termination of water service to the user to prevent or minimize damage to the POTW system, or endangerment to individuals or the environment. The city shall reinstate the wastewater contribution permit or the wastewater treatment service (and water service, if terminated) to such user upon proof of the elimination of the noncomplying discharge. A detailed written statement submitted by the user describing the causes of the hannful contribution and the measures taken to prevent any future occurrence shall be submitted to the city within 15 days of the date of occurrence.
