SB 434-FN-LOCAL - FISCAL NOTE
AN ACT exempting the town of Tilton from hazardous waste cleanup fund fees associated with the removal of the municipal target range.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Department of Environmental Services has determined this bill will decrease state restricted revenue and local expenditures by $26,262 in FY 2000. There will be no fiscal impact on county or local revenue and on state and county expenditures.
METHODOLOGY:
The Department stated the fee that was assessed to the Town of Tilton was a one time fee in accordance with RSA 147-B:8. The fee was determined by the poundage of waste which was shipped off-site during the cleanup of the municipal target range in August 1999. The fee of $0.03 was assessed on a total of 875,395 pounds ($26,262). Because the fee is due in the current fiscal year, there would be a negative impact to the Hazardous Waste Cleanup Fund and a reduction in local expense of $26,262 in FY 2000.
