Commission, and any restraint or hindrance offered to such entry
by any owner or tenant, or agent of said owner or tenant, or any
other person, shall be a misdemeanor punishable under Section 669
of this sub-title.

668.    All individuals, firms, or corporations having buildings, con-
duits, pipes, tracks, poles or other structures or obstructions in, on,
over, under or through any public road, street or alley of any sani-
tary district, which shall block or impede the construction and estab-
lishment of the [Commission's] District's water [supply,] or sewer-
age [or drainage] systems, or other works, shall upon reasonable
notice from the Commission, promptly so shift, adjust, accommodate
or remove such structure or obstructions as to fully meet the exigen-
cies occasioning such action; provided, however, that the costs of such
changes shall be borne and paid for by the [Commission] District.
Every public service corporation, company or individual before it
or they shall begin any excavation or construction in any street,
road, alley or public highway within any sanitary district shall file
with the Commission plans of such work and construction showing
the location and depth in such street, road, alley or public highway,
of the proposed main, conduit, pole, pipe or other structure, and such
construction or work shall not be begun until said plan shall have
been approved by the Commission, nor shall any change be made in
said approved plan or in the work or construction as shown upon
said plan except on further approval of the Commission. Whenever
any main, conduit, pole, pipe or other structure is put in without the
filing of plans with the Commission and the approval thereof by it,
or when any change is made in the location of such main, conduit,
pipe, pole or other structure as shown upon the plans approved by
the Commission or any approved change therein, the [Commission]
District may, if and when such conduit, main, pipe, or pole, or other
structure, interferes with the construction of or operation of its
water or sewage system, or other works, remove such conduit, main,
pipe, pole or other structures or change the location thereof at the
cost and expense of the party so putting them in, or their heirs,
assigns or successors, and without any liability upon the part of the
[Commission] District for damage that might be done to the same
by reason of the [Commission's] District's operations in construct-
ing or maintaining its systems or works. Any violation of the provi-
sions of this section shall be a misdemeanor punishable under Section
669 of this sub-title.

669.    Every act or omission designated as a misdemeanor in this
sub-title, unless otherwise provided, shall be punishable by any trial
magistrate or the Circuit Court of the county within which such
offense is committed, and the offender shall, upon conviction, be
subject to a fine of not exceeding One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) or
to confinement for not more than thirty (30) days in the county
jail, or both, in the discretion of the magistrate or Circuit Court.
Where such act or omission is of a continuing nature and is per-
sisted in, in violation of the provisions of this sub-title or of any
rule or regulation formulated thereunder, a conviction for one
offense shall not be a bar to the conviction for a continuation of such
offense subsequent to the first or any succeeding conviction.

670.    The Commission shall be, and it is hereby authorized to
prescribe all needful rules and regulations for the administration
and enforcement of this sub-title.
