§ 15-22-219. Fees.

Any person applying for a permit and having plans and specifications examined under § 15-22-211, in consideration therefor, shall pay to the Arkansas Natural Resources Commission an initial dam permit application review fee equal to one percent (1%) of the estimated cost of construction for the dam, which in any case shall not be less than one hundred dollars ($100) nor more than one thousand dollars ($1,000). The dam permit application review fee shall be assessed as an initial fee upon application for the dam permit or upon a major modification of a dam requiring the issuance of a revised permit. Any person obtaining a permit under the provisions of § 15-22-210, in consideration therefor, shall pay to the commission a fee equal to twelve cents (12¢) per acre-foot of water which the dam involved is designed to impound, but not less than twenty-five dollars ($25.00) nor more than ten thousand dollars ($10,000). The permit shall provide that the same fee shall be paid by that person to the commission each year thereafter during which the dam is maintained, on or before the anniversary date of the issuance of the permit. The fees in subsections (a) and (b) of this section shall be deposited by the commission into the Arkansas Water Development Fund to be used by the commission as provided by law and shall not be paid into the State Treasury.
