2303.14   VIOLATIONS.
   (a)   No person shall violate or cause or knowingly permit to be violated any of the provisions of this regulation, or fail to comply with any of such provisions or with any lawful requirements of any public authority made pursuant to this regulation, or knowingly use or cause or permit the use of any lands in violation of this regulation or in violation of any permit granted under this regulation.
   (b)   Upon notice, the City Engineer and/or his or her designee may suspend any active soil-disturbing activity for a period not to exceed 90 days, and may require immediate erosion and sediment control measures whenever he or she determines that such activity is not meeting the intent of this regulation. Such notice shall be in writing, shall be given to the permittee, and shall state the conditions under which work may be resumed. In instances, however, where the City Engineer and/or his or her designee finds that immediate action is necessary for public safety or the public interest, he or she may require that work be stopped upon verbal order pending issuance of the written notice. In the event the permittee does not correct the violations within 90 days the City Engineer may revoke to Storm Water Management Permit.
   (c)   When a permit has been revoked, it shall not be reinstated until all existing violations have been corrected and a superintendent provided, if required. Written notice of the reinstatement of a permit shall be given to the owner before the work may proceed.
   (d)   No person shall remove, deface or conceal the notice of revocation, after the same has been posted, except at the order of the City Engineer.
