Legal Documents of Bean Station

Under the authority of Tennessee Code Annotated, § 69-3-123 et seq., the town and its users shall utilize and comply with the current Enforcement Response Guide of the MUC as adopted herein.

Notwithstanding any other section of this policy, any user who is found to have violated any provision of this policy, or any permit or order issued hereunder, may be assessed a penalty in an amount not to exceed ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) per violation. Each day on which noncompliance shall occur or continue shall be deemed a separate and distinct violation. Such assessments may be added to the user's next scheduled sewer service charge and MUC shall have such other collection remedies as it has to collect other service charges. Unpaid charges and penalties shall constitute a lien against the individual user's property. Industrial users desiring to dispute such penalties must file a request for MUC to reconsider the penalty within ten (10) days of being notified of the fine. Where MUC believes a request has merit, it shall convene a hearing on the matter within fifteen (15) days of receiving the request from the industrial user.
