(a) Notice of Abandonment. A Permittee shall notify the Department, or the Department may determine and notify a Permittee, that a permitted Surface-Mounted Facility has been abandoned. In such event, a Permittee shall promptly remove the abandoned Surface-Mounted Facility as required by the Department and at Permittee's expense.
(b) Certification of Continued Use. Should the Department have reason to believe a permitted Surface-Mounted Facility has been abandoned, the Department may request that a Permittee certify that the permitted Surface-Mounted Facility is still in use. If the Permittee fails to respond to the Department's request within 60 days, the Department may determine that the permitted Surface-Mounted Facility has been abandoned.
(c) Remedy for Non-Compliance. If a Permittee fails to remove an abandoned Surface-Mounted Facility within a reasonable period of time after notifying the Department or receiving a notice of abandonment, the Department shall take all reasonable, necessary, and appropriate action to remedy the Permittee's failure to comply with the notice (including removing the Surface-Mounted Facility) and may charge to the Permittee the reasonable costs the City has actually incurred including, but not limited to, administrative costs.
