Under Delhi, N.Y., Code § 228-13, property owners who fail to comply with Chapter 228 face fines of up to $250 per day, potential imprisonment of up to 15 days, or both. Because each day of non-compliance constitutes its own separate violation, the financial exposure grows the longer a violation remains unaddressed. Compliant operators generally act promptly to correct any identified deficiencies and document their remediation efforts.
