Section 25205.18 Of Article 9.1. Facilities And Generator Fees From California Health And Safety Code >> Division 20. >> Chapter 6.5. >> Article 9.1.

25205.18
. (a) If a facility has a permit or an interim status document which sets forth the facility's allowable capacity for treatment or storage, the facility's size for purposes of the annual facility fee shall be based upon that capacity, except as provided in subdivision (d).
  (b) If a facility's allowable capacity changes or is initially established as a result of a permit modification, or a submission of a certification pursuant to subdivision (d), the fee that is due for the reporting period in which the change occurs shall be the lower fee until December 31, 1994. After that date, the fee that is due for the reporting period in which a change occurs shall be the higher fee.
  (c) (1) The department may require the facility to submit an application to modify its permit to provide for an allowable capacity.
  (2) Subdivisions (a) and (d) of Section 25205.7 do not apply to an application for modification required by the department pursuant to this subdivision.
  (d) A facility may reduce its allowable capacity below the amounts specified in subdivision (a) or (c) by submitting a certification signed by the owner or operator in which the owner or operator pledges that the facility will not handle hazardous waste at a capacity above the amount specified in the certification. In that case, the facility's size for purposes of the annual facility fee shall be based upon the capacity specified in the certification, until the certification is withdrawn. Exceeding the capacity limits specified in a certification that has not been withdrawn shall be a violation of the hazardous waste control law and may subject a facility or its operator to a penalty and corrective action as provided in this chapter, including, but not limited to, an augmentation pursuant to Section 25191.1.
  (e) This section shall have no bearing on the imposition of the annual postclosure facility fee.
