§ 172-9. Suspension of access to MS4.  


Latest version.
  • A. 
    Any person discharging to the Town MS4 in violation of this chapter may have its MS4 access terminated if such termination would abate or reduce an Illicit Discharge. Prior to access termination, the SMO shall notify the violator, in writing, of the proposed termination of its MS4 access and the reasons for such termination. A person commits an offense if the person reinstates MS4 access to premises terminated pursuant to this section without the prior approval of the SMO.
    B. 
    The SMO may, without prior notice, suspend MS4 discharge access to a person when such suspension is necessary to stop an actual or threatened discharge which presents or may present imminent and substantial danger to the environment, to the health or welfare of persons, or to the MS4. The SMO shall notify the person of such suspension within a reasonable time thereafter in writing of the reasons for the suspension. If the violator fails to comply with a suspension order issued in an emergency, the SMO may take such steps as deemed necessary to prevent or minimize damage to the MS4 or to minimize danger to persons.
