Importance: Normal
Attachments: 20210608161022899.pdf; Tina – Attached is the fully executed MAO. The MAO requires that the City submit a SEP application within 30 days for DEQ approval, otherwise the $19,751 civil penalty would be due within 60 days. Additionally, under the provisions of the MAO, failure to implement the provisions in the Consent Order prior to December 31st, will result in a penalty of $438,515 being immediately due. If the City foresees any issues with meeting the compliance date of December 31st, please let either myself or Alex know as soon as possible.

Subject: Agreement in Case No. LQ/CU-NWR-2020-197
Tina – Attached is an agreement settling the case. The agreement reduces the penalty to $19,751, allows the City to further reduce the penalty contingent upon submittal of an environmental project application, and re-instates the penalty reduction if the City fails to complete the requirements in Section 5.A of the Consent Order prior to December 31, 2021.
If any of the agreement doesn’t make sense or needs to be changed, feel free to let me know. I am available this week on Tuesday or Wednesday afternoon to talk if needed.
Thank you – Susan
