A. 
The Village may suspend the wastewater treatment service and/or a wastewater contribution permit when such suspension is necessary, in the opinion of the Village, in order to stop an actual or threatened discharge which presents or may present an imminent or substantial endangerment to the health or welfare of persons, to the environment, causes interference to the POTW or causes the Village to violate any condition of its NPDES permit.
B. 
Any person notified of a suspension of the wastewater treatment service and/or the wastewater contribution permit shall immediately stop or eliminate the contribution. In the event of a failure of the person to comply voluntarily with the suspension order, the Village shall take such steps as deemed necessary, including immediate severance of the sewer connection, to prevent or minimize damage to the POTW system or endangerment to any individuals. The Village shall reinstate the wastewater contribution permit and/or the wastewater treatment service upon proof of the elimination of the noncomplying discharge. A detailed written statement submitted by the user describing the causes of the harmful contribution and the measures taken to prevent any future occurrence shall be submitted to the Village within 15 days of the date of occurrence.
Any user who violates the following conditions of this Part 1 or applicable state and federal regulations is subject to having his permit revoked in accordance with procedures of this article:
A. 
Failure of a user to factually report the wastewater constituents and characteristics of his discharge;
B. 
Failure of the user to report significant changes in operations or wastewater constituents and characteristics;
C. 
Refusal of reasonable access to the user's premises for the purpose of inspection or monitoring; or
D. 
Violation of conditions of the permit.
Whenever the Village finds that any user has violated or is violating this Part 1 wastewater contribution permit, any prohibition, limitation of requirements contained herein, the Superintendent may serve upon such person a written notice stating the nature of the violation. Within 30 days of the date of the notice, a plan for the satisfactory correction thereof shall be submitted to the Superintendent by the user.
