Section 3745-50-36 - Annual hazardous waste permit fees

(A) On each anniversary of the date of issuance of the hazardous waste facility installation and operation permit and of any subsequent renewal permits, the owner or operator of that facility shall pay to the director an annual permit fee. Annual permit fees totaling forty thousand dollars or more for any one facility may be paid on a quarterly basis, with the first quarterly payment each year being due on the anniversary of the date of issuance of the hazardous waste facility installation and operation permit and of any subsequent renewal permits.

(B) The annual permit fee shall be determined for each permit holder in accordance with sections 3734.02 and 3734.18 of the Revised Code.

(C) For a hazardous waste facility subject to the payment of an annual permit fee under paragraph (A) of this rule, additional payments for multiple units of the same method of storage, treatment, or disposal, or for individual units that are used for both storage and treatment shall not be made. A facility using more than one method of storage, treatment, or disposal is subject to the permit fee for each such method.

(D) Payment shall not be made for the portion of an annual permit fee that would apply to a hazardous waste management unit for which a permit has been issued but for which construction has not yet commenced. Once construction has commenced, payment shall be prorated on a daily basis, computed upon the number of days from the commencement of construction until the next anniversary date when the payment of the annual fee is due.
