(a) As an alternative to bringing suit pursuant to Section 75633, the district may collect any delinquent groundwater charges and any interest, penalties, costs, and administrative charges. The collection shall be in the same manner as would be applicable to the collection of delinquent assessments, water charges, or tolls.
(b) As an additional remedy, the district may order, after a public hearing, an operator to cease extraction of groundwater from a water-producing facility until all delinquent fees and charges are paid. The district shall give notice to the operator by certified mail not less than 15 days in advance of the public hearing.
(c) The remedies specified in this section for the collection and enforcement of fees are cumulative, and the district may pursue them alternatively or use them consecutively as determined by the board.
