§ 51.140  ADMINISTRATIVE FINES.
   Notwithstanding any other section of this chapter, any user who is found to have violated any provision of this chapter, or permits and orders issued hereunder, shall be fined in an amount not to exceed $1,000 per violation.  Each day on which noncompliance shall occur or continue shall be deemed a separate and distinct violation.  Such assessments may be added to the user's next scheduled sewer service charge and the Superintendent shall have such other collection remedies as he has to collect other service charges.  Unpaid charges, fines, and penalties shall constitute a lien against the individual user's property.  Industrial users desiring to dispute such fines must file a request for the Superintendent to reconsider the fine within ten days of being notified of the fine.  Where the Superintendent believes a request has merit, he shall convene a hearing on the matter with 15 days of receiving the request from the industrial user.
