opinion that any person, association or corporation, municipal or
otherwise, within the district is failing or omitting, or about to fail
or omit to do anything required of it by its order or by the laws
governing the control or elimination of pollution of the waters of the
district, or is doing or is about to do anything, or permitting or about
to permit anything to be done contrary to or in violation of such orders
or such laws, or the provisions of the compact, it may direct its legal
representative to commence an action or a proceeding in the name of the

this state and the said court shall have and is hereby given the
necessary and appropriate jurisdiction to determine such action or
proceeding upon the merits and/or to grant any relief appropriate to the
