[Amended 2-26-2010]
All federal, state and county regulations concerning the transport and storage of any hazardous material shall be applicable at all times on all streets, roadways, alleys, real estate and waterways in the Town of Fenwick Island.
If any such hazardous material shall be improperly or inappropriately released, emitted or discharged within the Town of Fenwick Island, for any reason or cause, it is the total responsibility of the person(s) responsible for the container that so released, emitted or discharged such hazardous material to remove the same without delay.
Any and all damages, costs or expenses caused to the owner of the property on or in which the hazardous material was so released, emitted or discharged shall be compensated for by the person(s) who was responsible for the container from which the hazardous material was released, emitted or discharged.
Any violation of this chapter may be subject to fines of up to $100 per day until such hazardous material as referred to in § 95-3 is removed. Such fine is cumulative and would, therefore, impose an additional fine of $100 per day for each violation.
