DOA:......Miner, BB0321 - Change certain air permit fees
For 2009-11 Budget -- Not Ready For Introduction
2009 BILL
AN ACT ...; relating to: the budget.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Environment
Air quality
The federal government has delegated to DNR the authority to administer the federal Clean Air Act in this state. The Clean Air Act requires operators of certain stationary sources of air pollution, such as large factories, to have operation permits (federal operation permits). State law requires operators of additional stationary sources of air pollution to have operation permits (state operation permits). Generally, current law requires an operator who has either kind of operation permit to pay an annual fee of $35.71 per ton of certain pollutants emitted, subject to a cap.
This bill changes the annual fees that must be paid by operators who are required to have state operation permits. Under the bill, the annual fee is generally $775. The fee for some operation permits that contain provisions that limit a source's potential to emit so that the source is not required to have a federal operation permit is $3,475.
Current law imposes an annual fee of $300 on the operator of a stationary source of air pollution who is not required to have an operation permit if the stationary source emits more than three tons of certain air pollutants in a year. This bill eliminates that fee.
Current law requires DNR to specify a term of not more than five years for most air pollution operation permits, but the law generally prohibits DNR from specifying an expiration date for certain simplified permits. This bill authorizes DNR to specify a term of more than five years for a state operation permit, other than a simplified permit, or to specify that such a state operation permit does not expire.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.

taxation
Other taxation
Under current law, a state agency may certify to DOR a debt owed to the state agency so that DOR can collect the debt by subtracting the debt amount from the debtor's state tax refund. A debt which a state agency may certify to DOR includes an amount that has been reduced to a judgment or an amount for which the state agency has provided the debtor reasonable notice and an opportunity to be heard with regard to that amount. Under current law, DOR charges the debtor an amount to cover DOR's administrative expenses related to offsetting the debt from the debtor's refund.
This bill generally requires a state agency to enter into a written agreement with DOR to have DOR collect any amount owed to a state agency that is more than 90 days past due, unless negotiations between the agency and the debtor are actively ongoing, the debt is the subject of legal action or administrative proceedings, or the agency determines that the debtor is adhering to an acceptable payment arrangement. Under the agreement, DOR, rather than the state agency, may provide the debtor reasonable notice and an opportunity to be heard with regard to the debt. Also, DOR may collect the debt directly from the debtor rather than offset the debt amount from a state tax refund. Under the bill, DOR charges the debtor an amount to cover DOR's administrative expenses related to collecting the debt.
