(A) Consent orders. The Manager is hereby empowered to enter into consent orders, assurances of voluntary compliance or other similar documents establishing an agreement with the industrial user responsible for the noncompliance. The orders will include specific action to be taken by the industrial user to correct the noncompliance within a time period also specified by the order. Consent orders shall have the same force and effect as administrative orders issued pursuant to division (B) of this section.
(B) Compliance order. When the Manager finds that an industrial user has violated or continues to violate this chapter or a permit or order issued thereunder, he or she may issue an order to the industrial user responsible for the discharge directing that, following a specified time period, sewer service shall be discontinued unless adequate treatment facilities, devices or other related appurtenances have been installed and are properly operated. Orders may also contain such other requirements as might be reasonably necessary and appropriate to the noncompliance, including the installation of pretreatment technology, additional self-monitoring and management practices.
(C) Cease and desist orders. When the Manager finds that an industrial user has violated or continues to violate this chapter or any permit or order issued hereunder, the Manager may issue an order to cease and desist all such violations and direct those persons in noncompliance to:
(1) Comply forthwith; and
(2) Take the appropriate remedial or preventative action as may be needed to properly address a continuing or threatened violation, including halting operations and terminating the discharge.
