2. A citation issued pursuant to this section may include, without limitation, an order to:

(a) Take action to correct any condition resulting from any act that constitutes a violation of a provision set forth in subsection 1, at the cost of the person who committed the violation. If the citation contains such an order, the citation must:

(1) State the time permitted for compliance, which must be not less than 5 business days after the date the person receives the citation; and

(2) Specifically describe the corrective action to be taken.

(b) Except as otherwise provided by subsection 4, pay an administrative fine not to exceed the amount prescribed pursuant to subsection 3.
