Department of Ecology:

Section 13 would authorize Ecology to require a fee from persons that register or report under the provisions of this chapter. Ecology would adopt rules following an opportunity for public comment that would determine the payment schedule and fee amount. The fee amount would be required to be set so that receipts equal but do not exceed the projected direct and indirect costs for Ecology’s and Commerce’s development and implementation of the program. 

 

Ecology would be required to establish rules by January 1, 2023, under section 3. Ecology assumes the fee authorized in section 13 would start on this date. Based on the start date for fee implementation, Ecology estimates that the latter 6 months of FY 2023 expenditures for the Clean Fuels program would be fee-recoverable, and all future expenditures would be funded through fee revenue in the Clean Fuels Program Account. 

 

Per section 13, the fee amount would be set so that receipts equal but do not exceed projected direct and indirect costs for Ecology's and Commerce’s development and implementation of the program. Cash receipts are estimated to equal expenditure estimates in the new Clean Fuels Program Account beginning January 1, 2023. 

 

Individual fee levels and the number of fee payers is indeterminate at this time. Rulemaking and stakeholder feedback will determine which entities will be required to pay a fee and what portion of the program should be supported by each class of participant. 

 

All fee receipts would be deposited in the Clean Fuels Program Account created in section 13.
