agency may issue an administrative order requiring the owner or
operator of a solid waste facility to take corrective action as
necessary to abate a nuisance, or to protect human health and safety

violation that is corrected immediately in the presence of the
inspector.  Immediate compliance in that manner shall be noted in the

corrective action after an order issued pursuant to subdivision (a)

order by the date specified in the order.

pursuant to subdivision (b), the owner or operator of the solid waste
facility shall reimburse the enforcement agency or the board for the
amount expended, including, but not limited to, a reasonable amount
for contract administration, and an amount equal to the interest that
would have been earned on the expended funds.  The amount expended
shall be recoverable in a civil action by the Attorney General, upon
