The Nonattainment Area Air Pollution Mitigation Enterprise is authorized by C.R.S. § 43-4-1303(6)(h) to promulgate rules setting the amounts of the Air Pollution Mitigation Per Ride Fee and the Air Pollution Mitigation Retail Delivery Fee at or below maximum levels contained in C.R.S. § 43-4-1303(7) and (8).

SB21-260 Sustainability of the Transportation System created new sources of dedicated funding and new state enterprises intended to preserve, improve, and expand existing transportation infrastructure and mitigate environmental and health impacts of transportation system use. To accomplish these goals, the legislation established a Nonattainment Area Air Pollution Mitigation Enterprise (the Enterprise), an enterprise and government owned business within the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) for the purpose of collecting fee revenue to mitigate the impacts of increased air pollution that results from increased motor vehicle use for Retail Deliveries and Prearranged Rides by Transportation Network Companies. The Enterprise is a Type 1 transfer agency and as such the Legislature specifically vested the Enterprise with the authority to promulgate rules to set the amounts of fees called for in the legislation in addition to other activities. The Enterprise is required to impose the Air Pollution Mitigation Per Ride Fee and the Air Pollution Mitigation Retail Delivery Fee. Per statute, for the Air Pollution Mitigation Retail Delivery Fee, the Enterprise can set a maximum fee of seven-tenths of one cent per Retail Delivery. The board can set a maximum fee of $0.1125 for any Prearranged Ride in a Zero Emissions Motor Vehicle (ZEV) or that is a Carshare Ride and $0.225 for any other Prearranged Ride. The fees delineated in the rule mirror the fee amounts set in C.R.S. § 43-4-1303.

The Enterprise shall notify the Department of Revenue (DOR) of the amount of the Air Pollution Mitigation Per Ride Fee to be collected for rides requested and accepted during each state fiscal year no later than March 15 of the calendar year in which the state fiscal year begins. The Enterprise shall also notify DOR of the amount of the Air Pollution Mitigation Retail Delivery Fee to be collected for Retail Deliveries of Tangible Personal Property purchased during each state fiscal year no later than March 15 of the calendar year in which the state fiscal year begins. CDOT will work with DOR to determine the maximum fee amounts that may be imposed, which shall be the maximum amounts for the prior state fiscal year adjusted for inflation.
