(1) The cost of administering this part shall be recovered by collecting fees from persons engaged in servicing. Fee categories and, subject to subsection (2), rates are as follows:

(a) The fee for a septage waste servicing license is $200.00 per year.

(b) The fee for a septage waste vehicle license is as follows:

(i) If none of the vehicles owned by the person applying for the septage waste vehicle license will be used at any time during the license period for disposal of septage waste by land application, $350.00 per year for each septage waste vehicle.

(ii) If any of the vehicles owned by the person applying for the septage waste vehicle license will be used at any time during the license period for disposal of septage waste by land application, $480.00 per year for each septage waste vehicle.

(c) The fee to replace an existing septage waste vehicle under a septage waste vehicle license with a different septage waste vehicle under the same ownership, if the annual fee for that year has been paid under subdivision (b), is as follows:

(i) $200.00 if the septage waste vehicle being replaced has been inspected for that year under section 11706.

(ii) $150.00 if the vehicle being replaced has not been inspected for that year.

(d) The fee for a site permit is $500.00. However, a person shall not be charged a fee to renew a site permit.

(2) If a fee under subsection (1) is paid for a license, permit, or approval but the application for the license or permit or the request for the approval is denied, the department shall promptly refund the fee.

(3) For each state fiscal year, a person possessing a septage waste servicing license and septage waste vehicle license as of January 1 of that fiscal year shall be assessed a septage waste servicing license fee and septage waste vehicle license fee as specified in this section. The department shall notify those persons of their fee assessments by February 1 of that fiscal year. Payment shall be postmarked by March 15 of that fiscal year.

(4) The department shall assess interest on all fee payments received after the due date. The amount of interest shall equal 0.75% of the payment due, for each month or portion of a month the payment remains past due.
