Article 2 (commencing with Section 43201) of Chapter 3, after six
months from the date the determinations become final, or after six
months from the date of overpayment, whichever period expires later,
unless a claim therefor is filed with the board within that period.
Except as provided in subdivisions (e) and (f), no credit shall be
approved by the board after the expiration of that period, unless a
claim for credit is filed with the board within that period or unless
the credit relates to a period for which a waiver is given pursuant
to Section 43204.

(d) No claim for refund of taxes paid under this part shall be
accepted, considered, or approved by the board if the claim is

erroneously determined that any substance is a hazardous or extremely
hazardous waste. Any appeal of a determination that a substance is a
hazardous or extremely hazardous waste shall be made to the
director.
(e) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), the board may within 90 days
from the date of final board action or final judicial action,
whichever is later, concerning liability for the fee imposed pursuant
to Section 25205.5 of the Health and Safety Code, grant a refund or
apply a credit pursuant to Section 43451 for any amount of tax,
penalty, or interest that has been overpaid concerning a fee imposed
pursuant to Section 25205.2 of the Health and Safety Code, if the
taxpayer has paid or is being assessed a fee imposed pursuant to
Section 25205.5 of the Health and Safety Code for the same period and
site.
(f) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), the board may, within 90 days
from the date of final board action or final judicial action,
whichever is later, concerning liability for the fee imposed pursuant
to Section 25205.2 of the Health and Safety Code, grant a refund or
apply a credit pursuant to Section 43451 for any amount of tax,
penalty, or interest that has been overpaid concerning a fee imposed

(g) Any overpayment of the fee imposed by Section 25174.1 of the
Health and Safety Code by a person submitting hazardous waste for
disposal to a hazardous waste facility at which hazardous wastes are
disposed who is required to collect the fee shall be credited or
refunded by the state to the person who submitted the hazardous waste
for disposal. However, if the facility has paid the amount to the
board and establishes to the satisfaction of the board that it has
not collected the amount from the person submitting the hazardous
waste for disposal or has refunded the amount to that person, the
overpayment may be credited or refunded by the state to the facility.
