AN  ACT  to  amend  the  navigation law, in relation to license fees per
  barrel of petroleum

  THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section  1. Paragraph (a) of subdivision 4 of section 174 of the navi-
gation law, as amended by section 1 of part X of chapter 58 of the  laws
of 2015, is amended to read as follows:
  (a) The license fee shall be nine and one-half cents per barrel trans-
ferred UNLESS SUCH FACILITY IS LOCATED WITHIN A CITY HAVING A POPULATION
OF  ONE  MILLION  OR  MORE WHEREIN SUCH FEE SHALL BE ONE CENT PER BARREL
TRANSFERRED, provided, however, that the fee on  any  barrel,  including
any  products  derived therefrom, subject to multiple transfer, shall be
imposed only once at the point of first transfer. Provided further,  the
license fee for major facilities that (i) transfer barrels for their own
use,  and  (ii)  do  not  sell  or  transfer the product subject to such
license fee, shall be eight cents. In each  fiscal  year  following  any
year in which the balance of the account established by paragraph (a) of
subdivision  two  of  section  one  hundred seventy-nine of this article
equals or exceeds forty million dollars, no license fee shall be imposed
unless (a) the current balance in such account is less than  thirty-five
million  dollars or (b) pending claims against such account exceed fifty
percent of the existing balance of such account. In the event of  either
such occurrence and upon certification thereof by the state comptroller,
the  administrator  shall  within  ten  days of the date of such certif-
ication reimpose the license fee, which shall take effect on  the  first
day of the month following such relevy. The rate may be set at less than
nine  and  one-half  cents  per  barrel transferred if the administrator
determines that the revenue produced by such lower rate shall be  suffi-
cient  to pay outstanding claims against such account within one year of
such imposition of the license fee. Should  such  account  exceed  forty
