AN ACT to amend the environmental conservation law, in relation to oper-
  ating permit program fees for sources of regulated air contaminants

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

  Section 1. Subdivision 1  of  section  72-0303  of  the  environmental
conservation  law,  as  amended by section 1 of part D of chapter 413 of
the laws of 1999, is amended to read as follows:
  1. Commencing January first, nineteen hundred ninety-four  [and  every
year  thereafter]  UNTIL  DECEMBER THIRTY-FIRST, TWO THOUSAND EIGHT, all
sources of regulated air contaminants identified pursuant to subdivision
one of section 19-0311 of this chapter shall submit to the department  a
fee  not  to  exceed  forty-five dollars per ton up to six thousand tons
annually of each regulated air contaminant.   COMMENCING JANUARY  FIRST,
TWO  THOUSAND  NINE  AND EVERY YEAR THEREAFTER, ALL SOURCES OF REGULATED
AIR CONTAMINANTS IDENTIFIED  PURSUANT  TO  SUBDIVISION  ONE  OF  SECTION
19-0311  OF  THIS  CHAPTER  SHALL  SUBMIT TO THE DEPARTMENT A FEE NOT TO
EXCEED EIGHTY DOLLARS PER TON UP TO SIX THOUSAND TONS ANNUALLY  OF  EACH
REGULATED  AIR  CONTAMINANT.  Such fee shall be sufficient to support an
appropriation approved by the legislature for the  direct  and  indirect
costs  associated  with  the  operating  permit  program  established in
section 19-0311 of this chapter. Such fee shall be  established  by  the
department and shall be calculated by dividing the amount of the current
year  appropriation  from  the  operating  permit program account of the
clean air fund by the total tons of emissions of regulated  air  contam-
inants that are subject to the operating permit program fees from sourc-
es  subject  to the operating permit program pursuant to section 19-0311
of this chapter up to six thousand tons annually of each  regulated  air
contaminant from each source; provided that, in making such calculation,
the department shall adjust their calculation to account for any deficit

 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                      [ ] is old law to be omitted.
