STATUTORY
AUTHORITY: KRS 224.10-100, 224.46-550
NECESSITY,
FUNCTION, AND CONFORMITY: KRS 224.10-100(20) states that the cabinet may
provide by administrative regulation for a reasonable schedule of fees for the
cost of processing applications for permits, exemptions, and partial
exemptions. KRS 224.46-550 requires the cabinet to promulgate administrative
regulations requiring the payment of reasonable fees for hazardous waste
registration certificates and permits. The purpose of this chapter is to
establish a fee schedule for hazardous waste management. This administrative
regulation establishes the fee schedule for permits for recyclers of hazardous
waste and petitions to include additional wastes under 401 KAR Chapter 43.
Section 1.
Applicability. (1) This administrative regulation applies to all persons
considered to be recyclers in accordance with the criteria contained in Section
1 of 401 KAR 35:010 and 401 KAR Chapter 36.
(2) This
administrative regulation applies to all persons who petition the cabinet to
include additional wastes as a universal waste under 401 KAR Chapter 43.
Section 2.
Schedule of Fees for Recycling. (1) An annual fee shall be required in order to
register as a recycler of hazardous wastes. The fee to register as a hazardous
waste recycler is $300. Generators who generate less than 100 kg of hazardous
waste in a calendar month (that is, conditionally exempt small quantity
generators) shall be exempt from the registration fee for recycling activities.
(2) No fee is
charged if a registrant modifies his registration by making a name change. If a
registrant submits a registration to modify any other information, a fee of
fifty (50) dollars shall apply.
Section 3. Fees
for Universal Waste Petitions. Any person seeking to add a hazardous waste or a
category of hazardous waste to 401 KAR Chapter 43 shall submit a $2,500 fee
with the petition required in 401 KAR 43:070.
Section 4.
Submittal of Fees. The required fees shall be submitted to the cabinet with the
permit application. All checks shall be made payable to the Kentucky State
Treasurer. (12 Ky.R. 1104; eff. 2-4-86; Am. 14 Ky.R. 1506; eff. 3-10-88; 15
