53F Compliance with direction
(1) To comply with a direction under this Division, the owner of the premises
must-- (a) within 30 days after the direction was given either notify the
network operator that the required work will be done within 60 days after the
direction was given or request the network operator to disconnect the supply
of electricity to the premises, and
(b) (having notified the network operator
that the work will be done within 60 days after the direction was given) do
the required work within that 60 days.
Note : The owner must within 30 days
after the direction is given either notify the network operator that the
required work will be done or request disconnection. If the owner does neither
of those things within that 30 days, the network operator can take action
immediately for a failure to comply with the direction.
(2) If the owner of
premises does not comply with the direction, the network operator may do the
required work and (unless the network operator is responsible for the cost of
the work) may recover as a debt owed by the owner the reasonable cost of doing
the work in an efficient and competent manner.
(3) Any dispute about the
reasonable cost of doing the work may be referred to the Energy and Water
Ombudsman NSW for resolution.
(4) A network operator can by notice in writing
to the owner or occupier of premises, increase any period for compliance with
a direction.
