Where work for which a "Notice of Construction and Application for Approval" is required is commenced or performed prior to making application and receiving approval, the Control Officer may conduct an investigation as part of the Notice of Construction review. In such a case, an investigation fee, in addition to the fees of Section 324.2, shall be assessed in an amount equal to 3 times the fees of Section 324.2. Payment of the fees does not relieve any person from the requirement to comply with any air regulation nor from any penalties for failure to comply.
