The department is hereby authorized to continue to impose and collect all charges and other fees presently imposed and collected, pursuant to statutory authorization, by the department for the use of docks facilities or the handling or processing of cargo and commodities, irrespective of any statutory provisions providing for the termination of such charges and fees upon the happening of certain events, including specifically the special handling charge on coal handled by the department authorized to be imposed by Act No. 64 enacted at the 1971 Special Session of the Legislature, as amended, and the special processing charge on coal processed by the department authorized to be imposed by Act No. 703 enacted at the 1976 Regular Session of the Legislature, as amended, and all statutory provisions respecting or requiring the termination of such charges and fees in certain events are hereby repealed.
