UST General Permit Registration, Annual Compliance and Other Fees

(1)

An owner and permittee must pay a $400 installation fee for each UST or UST compartment installed and the general permit registration fee for each tank. This fee must accompany the application for a UST general permit registration certificate. The registration fee is the amount of the annual compliance fee in section (2) of this rule applicable to the year of installation.

(2)

Each calendar year (January 1 to December 31) following installation, the owner and permittee must pay an annual compliance fee for each UST that has not been permanently decommissioned, for any portion of the year, according to the following schedule:

(a)

$25 per tank for the years 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992 and 1993;

(b)

$35 per tank for the years 1994, 1995, 1996 and 1997;

(c)

$60 per tank for the years 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2001, except that for 1998 and 1999 the fee is $35 for any permittee that self-certifies its compliance with 1998 technical standards to DEQ;

$105 per tank for 2002, which includes a $20 surcharge per tank;

For multichambered or multicompartmented USTs, the owner and permittee must pay the general permit registration fee and annual compliance fee for each chamber or compartment.

(4)

DEQ will issue an invoice to each permittee for the annual compliance fees due for each UST facility for each calendar year. The permittee must pay fees by the due date listed on the invoice. DEQ will assess a $35 late fee for each invoice that is not paid by the due date. At its discretion, DEQ may allow the permittee to make alternative arrangements for payment.

(5)

For any UST that was not permitted by May 1, 1988, or that was not permitted before installation during any year thereafter, the owner and permittee must pay the annual compliance fee for each calendar year or part of a calendar year since installation, except that the total amount of fees owed will not be more than $500 per tank. These fees must be paid before DEQ will approve a 30-day or 3-day notice to decommission the UST.

(6)

All checks or money orders for fees must be made payable to DEQ.
