Court orders to stop wastewater rule violations

Read the official text at library.municode.com ↗

If a wastewater user breaks the rules, the county director can ask a court to order them to stop or to do what the permit requires. The director can also ask for other legal help, like cleanup. Asking the court does not block other actions.

The ordinance, as written (Maui County) — Injunctive relief

A copy, taken August 21, 2026. The version published by Maui County is the one that governs, and it may have changed since. Check it before relying on anything here.

When the director finds that a user has violated, or continues to violate, any provision of this article, a wastewater discharge permit, or order issued hereunder, or any other pretreatment standard or requirement, the director may petition the circuit court of the second circuit, State of Hawaii, through the County corporation counsel, for the issuance or a temporary or permanent injunction, as appropriate, that restrains or compels the specific performance of the wastewater discharge permit, order, or other requirement imposed by this article on activities of the user. The director may also seek such other action as is appropriate for legal and/or equitable relief, including a requirement for the user to conduct environmental remediation. A petition for injunctive relief shall not be a bar against, or a prerequisite for, taking any other action against a user. (Ord. 2760 § 4 (part), 1999)
