or pole, or other structure, interferes with the construction of or
operation of its water or sewerage system, or other works, remove
such conduit, main, pipe, pole or other structures or change the loca-
tion 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] Department for damage that might be
done to the same by reason of the [commission's] Department's
operations in constructing or maintaining its systems or works. Any
violation of the provisions of this section shall be a misdemeanor
punishable under Section 19-22.
