STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
In the Year of Our Lord Two Thousand
AN ACT expanding the used oil program.
Be it Enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened:
146:1 Public Health; Hazardous Waste Cleanup Fund; Used Oil Collection; Use of Money Collected; Eligibility for Grants. Amend RSA 147-B:13, I(a) to read as follows:
(a) Award grants [of up to $2,500 to a political subdivision of the state] to pay for the [cost of establishing or improving] costs associated with the establishment, improvement, or operation of used oil collection centers at public facilities such as fire stations, police barracks, highway departments, county garages, solid waste facilities, or other suitable [public] locations; and provide technical assistance to persons who organize such programs. Political subdivisions and other government entities shall be eligible for grants not to exceed $2,500 on an annual basis for the costs associated with the establishment or improvement of used oil collection facilities. In addition, political subdivisions and other government entities shall be eligible for grants on an annual basis for costs associated with the off-site transportation and recycling of used oil collected from individuals disposing of used oil. Non-profit organizations that focus on waste management and recycling issues, and private businesses that are registered state motor vehicle inspection stations, shall be eligible for grants not to exceed $2,500 on an annual basis for the costs to establish a used oil collection facility. In providing funding under this subparagraph, priority shall be given to reimburse political subdivisions [that have established a collection center under this program followed by political subdivisions] without public collection centers, followed by political subdivisions that have [inadequate] established collection centers, followed by other government entities, state motor vehicle inspection stations, and non-profit organizations. Political subdivisions that use the same center may combine their awards, but in no case shall the amount awarded to a collection center exceed $5,000.
146:2 Effective Date. This act shall take effect 60 days after its passage.
(Approved: May 23, 2000)

HB 1344-FN - FISCAL NOTE
AN ACT expanding the used oil program.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Department of Environmental Services indicates this bill will increase state expenditures by $64,600 and local revenue by $43,100 in FY 2001 and each year thereafter. There is no fiscal impact on state and county revenue or county and local expenditures.
METHODOLOGY:
The Department states the increase in state expenditure represents the collection and transported used oil grants that will be made to municipalities and businesses.
The state expenditure and corresponding increase in local revenue for second collection and the upgrade of existing centers totals $21,500. This was calculated by multiplying the number of communities that are expected to apply for the grants by the amount of each grant, and then dividing that total by the number of years to implement the grant program.

The state expenditure and corresponding increase in local revenue for the used oil transported off-site program totals $21,600. This was calculated by multiplying the number of gallons expected to be transported, times the disposal cost ($.20).
