15. If a work constructed by the Board or the Harbour Commissioners on, in, over, through, or across tidal lands or a tidal water is abandoned or suffered to fall into decay, the Board of Trade may abate and remove the work or any part of it, and restore the site thereof to its former condition at the expense of the Board or Harbour Commissioners, and the amount of such expense shall be a debt due from the Board or Harbour Commissioners to the Crown, and recoverable accordingly with costs, or the same may be recovered with costs as a penalty is recoverable from the Board or Harbour Commissioners.
