(A) The Utility Service Board may suspend the wastewater treatment service or a wastewater contribution permit when suspension is necessary, in the opinion of the Board, in order to stop an actual or threatened discharge which presents or may present an imminent or substantial endangerment to the health or welfare of persons, to the environment, causes interference to the POTW or causes violation to any condition of its NPDES permit.
(B) Any person notified of a suspension of the wastewater treatment service or the 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 Board shall take such steps as deemed necessary including immediate severance of the sewer connection, to prevent or minimize damage to the POTW system or endangerment to any individuals. The Board shall reinstate the wastewater contribution permit or the wastewater treatment service on proof of the elimination of the noncomplying discharge. A detailed written statement submitted by the user describing the causes of the harmful contribution and the measures taken to prevent any further occurrence shall be submitted to the Board within 15 days of the date of occurrence.
