3. The initial or annual renewal fee for certification to analyze any chemical analyte is equal to the respective fee set forth in subsection 2, plus the per diem allowance and travel expenses provided for state officers and employees generally for each person who conducts an inspection that is required for certification of the laboratory. If the laboratory is located outside of this State, the laboratory must pay the actual travel and per diem expenses of the employee of the Division who conducts the inspection.

4. For the annual period of certification beginning on August 1, 2029, and for each annual period of certification thereafter, the Director of the State Department of Conservation and Natural Resources shall increase each fee set forth in this section by an amount that is equal to 3 percent of the fee for the immediately preceding period of certification. The Director may, for any individual annual period of certification, suspend an increase in a fee specified in this subsection.

5. The Director of the State Department of Conservation and Natural Resources shall post on the Internet website of the Division the fees required pursuant to this section that are applicable for each annual certification period.

6. If an application for certification to test for an analyte is received during the annual period of certification, the fees for that certification must be prorated by using the following formula:

Fee x.083 x the number of months remaining in the annual period of certification.

The month in which the application is submitted must not be counted as a month remaining in the annual period of certification. The prorated fee must be rounded to the next highest dollar. The fee for submitting an application for certification to test for an analyte must not be prorated.

7. A fee for certification to analyze a specific analyte must be paid before a certificate may be issued.

8. Any fee paid pursuant to the provisions of this section is nonrefundable.
