§ 13-12. Penalties for violation.

(a) 

Any commercial collector who dumps more than one cubic foot in volume of solid waste at one time in an area not designated by DMIAAB for disposal of such solid waste shall be liable for civil penalties as stated in the General Statutes.

(b) 

Any commercial collector, resident or other person who violates any section of this chapter other than Subsection (a) above shall be subject to a fine in an amount not greater than $100 for a first offense and to a fine of $100 for each subsequent offense.

(c) 

For purposes of this section, each violation of this chapter shall be considered a separate and distinct offense.

(d) 

Each commercial collector who violates any section of this chapter shall be subject to the following penalties in addition to the fines set forth in Subsection (a) of this section: in the event of two or more violations within any calendar year, suspension of the right to use DMIAAB facilities or services for the remainder of the calendar year or for a period of time not to exceed six months, whichever is greater. DMIAAB shall notify by certified mail each commercial collector whose disposal rights it suspends.

(e) 

DMIAAB shall post notice in conspicuous locations in and around all DMIAAB facilities notices informing persons of the penalties for violating this chapter.

(f) 

DMIAAB may enforce by citation the provisions of this chapter and any regulations promulgated under the authority of this chapter, provided it issues a written warning and provides a notice of the specific violation before issuing the citation. The right to enforce the provisions of this chapter and regulation through the citation procedure does not deprive DMIAAB or its constituent Towns of any other enforcement powers they may have under law.
