Illicit discharges in emergency situations. 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.
