Bruce Gibson spoke at the Central Coast Regions Water Board meeting on May 22, 2014 asking for the Los Osos Prohibition Zone CDOs to be rescinded. He was asked by the Board as to what the County could do to enforce compliance to hook up should they remove the CDOs.
This is when the mysterious Ordinance 3209 popped up which the Water Board apparently was unaware of (as was most of us too, although it was very public in its adoption if you were paying attention)!
This ordinance was introduced on October 5, 2010 and adopted December 14, 2010 by the Supes and you can read it off this link (it is toward the end of the staff report). Yes, it has TEETH!

Footnote: If you have time to watch the video of this, don't miss the comments (rantings) by Tom (Reclamator, or as I prefer "Wrecklamator") Murphy! He cites the "National Standards Enforcement Agency" and some confused words about the County of SLO and $500 million! Always entertaining that Mr. Murphy!
