What could happen if the Health Inspector finds a violation?
If a Health Inspector contacts you about a violation of our solid waste regulations, he/she will usually first request that the problem be corrected within a specified period of time. The inspector will discuss what actions are appropriate to correct the violation. If the violation is not corrected, the inspector has several enforcement tools at his/her disposal, including: • Notice and Order to Correct Violation • Civil Infraction ($513 Ticket) • Compliance Agreement • Stop Work/Abatement Order • Court Injunction • Criminal Penalties • Permit Suspension/Revocation • Non-Compliance Fees All violations may be appealed in court or to the Health Officer or Board of Health.
