Any person to whom a permit has been issued hereunder who violates any provision of this Part of this chapter shall be served by the Division of Health or its duly authorized agent with a written notice stating the nature of the violation and providing a reasonable time limit for the satisfactory correction thereof. The offender shall, within the period of time stated in such notice, permanently cease such violation.
Any person who shall make any house connection or do any work in connection therewith without first having secured a permit therefor as required herein, or who shall continue any violation beyond the time limit provided for in § 161-64 hereof, shall, upon conviction thereof, be fined in an amount not exceeding $200 nor less than $2 for each such violation, in the discretion of the court. In default of payment of such fine, the person so convicted may, in the discretion of the court, be imprisoned in the county jail for a term not exceeding 90 days. Each day in which any such violation shall continue shall be deemed a separate offense. In the event that the same person shall be convicted two or more times within the space of six months of a violation of this Part of this chapter and due proof of such fact is made, the court may, in addition to the imposition of the penalty hereinabove referred to, cause the defendant to be imprisoned in the county jail for any number of days not exceeding one for each dollar of the penalty.
