(A) Civil penalties. In the event the alleged violator fails to take the remedial measures set forth in the Notice of Violation or otherwise fails to cure the violations described therein within two days, or such greater period as the Department of Highways shall deem appropriate, after the Director of Public Works or designee has taken one or more of the actions described above, the Public Works Director may impose a penalty not to exceed $1,000 (depending on the severity of the violation) for each day the violation remains unremedied after receipt of the Notice of Violation.
(B) Criminal penalties. For violations of this chapter or the Regulations, the Director of Public Works may issue a citation to the alleged violator requiring such person to appear in court to answer charges for such violation.

Each act of violation and each day upon which any violation shall occur shall constitute a separate offense.
