SUBJECT: Environmental Fees Question and Answer
As the Members surely know, the General Assembly passed the Governor's huge fee increase bill this last legislative session in an effort to provide funding for the Agency and to fill the state's budget hole. Since the Governor signed this bill, these fees are now law, and the Agency is in the process of implementing the increased and new fees. With this implementation comes many questions. IERG Staff will answer these questions as they arise, and will add them to our growing list of 'Environmental Fees: Questions and Answers.
