(A) The City Manager may for good cause shown, suspend the sewage disposal system service and/or the discharge permit of a discharger when it appears that an actual or impending discharge presents or threatens an imminent or substantial danger to the health or welfare of persons or the environment, interferes with the operation of the POTW, violates any pretreatment limits or conditions imposed by this chapter or any discharge permit issued pursuant to this chapter.
(B) Any discharger notified of the suspension of sewage disposal system service and/or the discharger’s discharge permit, shall cease all discharges immediately upon notification or as directed by the City Manager. In the event of failure of the discharger to comply voluntarily with the suspension order within the specified time, the City Manager may take whatever steps are deemed necessary to eliminate the discharge, including cessation of city water service and/or shall commence judicial proceedings for injunctive relief immediately thereafter to compel the discharger’s compliance with such order.
(C) The City Manager may reinstate the discharge permit and/or sewage disposal system service and terminate judicial proceeding upon presentation of proof by the discharger of the elimination of the non-complying discharge or conditions creating the threat of imminent or substantial danger as set forth above.
