When the Town Engineer finds that a user has violated or continues
to violate any provision of this Part 1, a wastewater discharge permit
or order issued hereunder or any other pretreatment standard or requirement,
the Town Engineer may commence an action in a court of appropriate
jurisdiction through the Town Attorney for the issuance of a temporary
or permanent injunction, as appropriate, which restrains or compels
the specific performance of the wastewater discharge permit, order
or other requirement imposed by this Part 1 on activities of the user.
The Town Engineer may also seek such other action as is appropriate
for legal and/or equitable relief, including a requirement for the
user to conduct environmental remediation. A petition for injunctive
relief shall not be a bar against, or a prerequisite for, taking any
other action against a user.
Any person who shall maliciously or willfully break, damage,
destroy, uncover, deface or tamper with any structure, appurtenance
or equipment which is part of the wastewater facilities shall be subject
to prosecution and a penalty not to exceed $1,000 per day of violation
or imprisonment for not more than one year, or both, in addition to
civil damages incurred with such acts.
The remedies provided for in this Part 1 are not exclusive.
Enforcement of pretreatment violations will generally be in accordance
with the Town's enforcement response plan. The Town Engineer may take
any, all or any combination of these actions against a noncompliant
user.
