Whenever the commission finds, after notice and hearing, that a public utility is engaged in practices in the transportation of gas through pipeline facilities which violate the requirements of R.S. 45:308(B) or R.S. 45:313 and the public utility fails to achieve compliance after notice and reasonable opportunity to do so is given, the commission may impose a civil penalty not to exceed five hundred dollars for each day that such violation persists, except that the maximum civil penalty shall not exceed one hundred thousand dollars for any related series of violations. In determining the amount of such penalty, the appropriateness of such penalty to the size of the business of the person charged, the gravity of the violation, and the good faith of the person charged in attempting to achieve compliance, after notification of a violation, shall be considered.
