I’ll try to get it done next week, depending on the amount of budget assistance agencies need. I’m now the primary contact for 13 NR agencies, not 8, since we’re losing two analysts in the next week.

Lisa,
I didn’t mention our timeline for this rule-making. We are planning to send our notice packet to the Secretary of State on December 14th, for inclusion in the January 1 bulletin.
I know you’re very busy, but if you have any significant comments that might impact our SOS notice, it would be helpful to get that feedback before the 14th.
Beth

Subject: Fee approval: DEQ Conversion Technology Rules
DEQ is proposing administrative rules that would revise how solid waste facilities utilizing “conversion technology” would be regulated. In association with these regulatory changes, DEQ is proposing changes to the fees paid by the small number of existing facilities that fall into this category. With adoption of these rules, some facilities would be subject to new fee categories to be established under the rule while others would pay existing compost facility fees, in lieu of the solid waste treatment facility fees they currently pay.
DEQ did not include this fee in its 2011-13 budget presentation to the Legislature because the decision to proceed with this rulemaking was not made until the latter half of 2011. The fee rule, if adopted, will not affect fees paid in the 2011-13 biennium.
The attached documents request DAS approval of the new fee categories:
· CT.Fee.Approval-3.01.doc: Form 107BF21
· CT.Fee.Change-3.01.xls: Form 107BF22
· CT.Fee.DAS_Fee_Cover_Letter.docx: Explanation of fee change
