(a) As specified in RSA 485:8, III, the applicant shall pay an application fee for the review of:

proposed small community water system; or
(2) The modification of an existing public
water system, including:
a. The conversion of
a transient/non-community system from transient use to residential-type use;
or
b. The expansion of a small
community water system within 2 years of its original approval.
(b) The fee shall be determined as follows:
(1) For
proposedresidential-type units, the fee shall be as stated in
RSA
485:8, III per unit, regardless of the size
of the residential units;
(2) For
proposed non-residential units, the fee shall be determined by conversion of
the water system design flow to a residential-equivalent unit basis. For
purposes of this rule, a "residential-equivalent unit" means a design flow of
300 gpd;

determining the number of units the water system is designed to accommodate,
the department shall use system design parameters, proposed plans for
additional construction, and other factors bearing on the ultimate design flow
for the water system;
(6) The
department shall presume that any application for expansion within 2 years of
the initial submittal ispart of the initial water system design and therefore

fee shall be zero dollars;
(8) The
maximum fee shall be based on 175 units or equivalent residential units;
and
(9) No additional fee shall be
charged for revised submissions which do not include additional units, or for
submissions requesting an extension or expansion of an existing small community
water system.
