If the Department of Conservation determines that the multiple-site single fee is not warranted, the operator shall remit annual reporting fees calculated upon the total primary mineral commodity produced on each of the site listed above, pursuant to CCR Section 3698. Such fees shall be remitted within thirty (30) days of notification by the Department of Conservation. An operator or owner remitting an annual reporting fee later than thirty (30) days after notification, shall be assessed penalties and interest, as provided for in Public Resources Code (PRC) Section 2207(d)(5).
