(a) Beginning in fiscal year 2010/2011, and thereafter, within 30 days after the State Budget has been signed by the Governor, the Executive Officer shall provide a written fee determination notice to each affected entity of the amount due. The amount of the fee shall be based on the reports submitted pursuant to section 95204 and the fee calculation formulas set forth in section 95203. ARB will not collect the fee from entities whose total amount due, as calculated per section 95203, is less than or equal to fifty dollars ($50.00).

(b) Payment Period. Each entity that is notified by the Executive Officer that it must remit a specified dollar amount to ARB for the current fiscal year shall transmit that dollar amount to ARB for deposit into the Air Pollution Control Fund within 60 days of the fee determination notice date.

(c) Late Fees. The Executive Officer shall assess an additional fee on entities failing to pay the fee within 60 days of receipt of the fee determination notice. The Executive Officer shall set the late fee in an amount sufficient to pay ARB's additional expenses incurred by the entity's untimely payment. The late fee is in addition to any penalty that may be assessed as provided in section 95206.

(d) Expenditure of Fees. The fees collected from the entities are to be expended by ARB only for the purposes of recovering the costs of carrying out the provisions of AB 32 and repaying the Debt.
