Section 72-0302. State air quality control fees

1.  All  persons,  except  those  required  to pay a fee under section
  72-0303  of  this  article,  who  are  required  to  obtain  a   permit,
  certificate  or  approval  pursuant  to  the  state  air quality control
  program shall submit to the department a per emission point  fee  in  an
  amount established as follows:
    a.  $11,000.00  for  a  stationary  combustion  installation  having a
  maximum operating heat input equal to  or  greater  than  fifty  million
  British  thermal units per hour as stated on the most recent application
  for a permit to construct or application for a  certificate  to  operate
  and  which  emits  or has the potential to emit equal to or greater than
  any one of the following:
    (i) one hundred tons per year of oxides of nitrogen, or if located  in
  a severe ozone nonattainment area, twenty-five tons per year; or
    (ii) one hundred tons per year of sulfur dioxide; or
    (iii) one hundred tons per year of particulates.
    b. $2,000.00 for all stationary combustion installations which are not
  included  under paragraph a of this subdivision and which have a maximum
  operating heat input greater than fifty million  British  thermal  units
  per  hour  as stated on the most recent application for a certificate to
  operate.
    c. $100.00 for a stationary combustion installation having  a  maximum
  operating  heat  input less than fifty million British thermal units per
  hour as stated on the most  recent  application  for  a  certificate  to
  operate.
    d.  $2,000.00  for  a  process  air contamination source for an annual
  emission rate equal to or greater than twenty-five tons per year of  any
  one   of   the   following:  sulfur  dioxide,  nitrogen  dioxide,  total
  particulates, carbon monoxide,  total  volatile  organic  compounds  and
  other  specific  air contaminants. The annual emission rate shall be the
  actual annual emission rate as stated on the most recent application for
  a permit to construct or application for a certificate to operate.    In
  the  event  that  hours  of  operation  have  not  been specified on the
  applications then maximum possible hours of operation (8760 hours)  will
  be used to calculate actual annual emissions.
    e.  $160.00  for a process air contamination source, except a gasoline
  dispencing site, for an annual emission rate less than twenty-five  tons
  per  year of any one of the following: sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide,
  total particulates, carbon monoxide, total  volatile  organic  compounds
  and  other  specific air contaminants. The annual emission rate shall be
  the actual annual emission rate  as  applied  for  on  the  most  recent
  application  for  a permit to construct or application for a certificate
  to operate. In the event that hours of operation have not been specified
  on the applications then  maximum  possible  hours  of  operation  (8760
  hours) will be used to calculate actual annual emissions.
    f.  $2,000.00  for  an  incinerator  capable  of charging two thousand
  pounds of refuse per hour or greater.  The  charging  capacity  will  be
  established  in  accordance  with  the  application  for the most recent
  permit to construct or application for  a  certificate  to  operate  the
  incinerator source and will be calculated on an emission point basis.
    g.  $160.00  for  an  incinerator with a maximum design charge rate of
  less than two thousand pounds of refuse per hour. The charging  capacity
  will  be  established  in  accordance  with the application for the most
  recent permit to construct or application for a certificate  to  operate
  the  incinerator  source  and  will  be  calculated on an emission point
  basis.
    Provided, however, that where  a  city  or  county  is  delegated  the
  authority  to  administer  the state air quality control program, or any

  portion thereof, pursuant to paragraph p of subdivision two  of  section
  3-0301  of  this  chapter  and  such  city  or  county collects a fee in
  connection with the issuance of a permit, certificate or approval for  a
  combustion   installation,  incinerator  or  process  air  contamination
  source, no additional liability for fees under this section shall accrue
  for the particular combustion installation, incinerator or  process  air
  contamination source that is subject to the delegation.
