7-7-9-1: NOTIFICATION OF VIOLATION (EPA 9.1):
When the city finds that a user has violated or continues to violate any provision of this chapter, an industrial wastewater discharge permit, order issued hereunder, or any other pretreatment standard or requirement, the city may serve upon that user a written notice of violation. Within thirty (30) days of the receipt of such notice, an explanation of the violation and a plan for the satisfactory correction and prevention thereof, to include specific required actions, shall be submitted by the user to the city. Submission of such a plan in no way relieves the user of liability for any violations occurring before or after receipt of the notice of violation. Nothing in this section shall limit the authority of the city to take any action, including emergency actions or any other enforcement action, without first issuing a notice of violation. (Ord. 2020-018, 10-19-2020)
