Administrative or compliance orders.

A. When the Town Board finds that a user has violated, or continues to violate, any provision of this chapter, a wastewater discharge permit or order issued thereunder, or any other pretreatment standard or requirement, it may issue an order to the user responsible for the discharge directing that the user come into compliance within a specified time. If the user does not come into compliance within the time provided, sewer service may be discontinued unless adequate treatment facilities, devices, or other related appurtenances are installed and properly operated. Compliance orders also may contain other requirements to address the noncompliance, including installation of pretreatment technology, additional self-monitoring and management practices designed to minimize the amount of pollutants discharged to the sewer.

A compliance order may not extend the deadline for compliance established for a pretreatment standard or requirement, nor does a compliance order relieve the user of liability for any violation, including any continuing violation. Issuance of a compliance order shall not be a bar against, or a prerequisite for, taking any other action against the user.B. The user may, within 15 calendar days of receipt of such order, petition the Town Board to modify or suspend the order. Such petition shall be in written form and shall be transmitted to the Chief Plant Operator and/or Superintendent of Sewers by registered mail.

The Town Board may then:(1) Reject the petitions;(2) Modify or suspend the order; or(3) Order the petitioner to show cause in accordance with § 257-144 and may, as part of the show cause notice, request the user to supply additional information.
