New York Public Authorities Law Section 1355 - Orders, service thereof and penalties.

1355. Orders, service thereof and penalties. The authority may make, and cause to be served upon any corporation or individual, within the port district, excepting the city of Oswego and the town of Scriba, any reasonable order which it may determine to be necessary for the proper development, maintenance and use of the port, relating to the construction, equipment, repair, maintenance, use and rental of any dock, wharf, slip, terminal, warehouse or industrial project owned or leased by any such corporation or individual within the district. There shall be served with a copy of the order a notice specifying a day, not less than ten days after such service, when such corporation or individual may appear before the authority, present written objections to the making of the order and be heard on such objections. If no such objections are filed within the time stated, or if the order be sustained as the result of such hearing, either in its original or modified form, such order shall be final, subject only to review by a court of competent jurisdiction. When an order of the authority shall become final, including the termination of any court proceeding sustaining the order, or of the time for beginning such a proceeding if none be brought, if the corporation or individual shall fail to obey it, or if any corporation or individual shall violate a lawful rule of the authority, the authority may commence and maintain an action or proceeding in an appropriate court having jurisdiction, for the purpose of having such disobedience to an order or violation of a rule prevented or obedience enforced, either by mandamus or injunction.
