The commissioner, upon notice and hearing, may revoke the certificate of approval and may impose a penalty not exceeding $1,000.00 for any violation of this act or of any rule or regulation duly issued hereunder or order issued pursuant thereto. If any penalty imposed pursuant to this act is not paid, then the penalty shall be sued for and recovered by and in the name of the commissioner in a summary proceeding under the Penalty Enforcement Law (N.J.S. 2A:58-1 et seq.). In such summary proceeding, the commissioner need only prove that notice was given, a hearing held, a decision rendered and a penalty imposed which has not been paid.

Where any violation of this act or of any rule or regulation duly issued hereunder is of a continuing nature, each day during which such violation continues after the date fixed by the commissioner in any order or notice for the correction or termination of such violation or each day the camp operates without a valid certificate of approval or continues to operate after notification of revocation of its certificate of approval, shall constitute an additional, separate and distinct violation, except during the time an appeal from said order or notice may be taken or is pending.
