§ 39-7424.
solid waste disposal fees. (1) In order to facilitate the department assuming the responsibility for the activities formerly the responsibility of the various public health districts, it is necessary to impose a system of fees upon each municipal solid waste disposal facility or site authorized pursuant to this chapter, or other disposal facility authorized by the director, to support the additional regulatory responsibilities of the department. Costs and expenses incurred by the department in performing the duties provided for in this chapter that were formerly the responsibility of the various public health districts shall be paid out of the solid waste regulatory fund created in this chapter. The fees imposed pursuant to this section shall apply to all solid waste disposed of in an MSWLF located within this state, whether disposal remains in state or is exported out of state, and regardless of whether such waste is subsequently mined or otherwise recovered for items of value.
(2) Each facility subject to regulation pursuant to this chapter shall pay an annual inspection fee.
(a) MSWLFs shall pay an annual inspection fee of four thousand dollars ($4,000).
(b) All other solid waste facilities shall pay an annual inspection fee in an amount to be established by the director.
(3) In addition to the annual inspection fee, a tonnage fee of seven cents ($0.07) per ton of solid waste shall be imposed. The tonnage fee shall be assessed only on:
(a) Solid waste disposed of at an MSWLF in the state of Idaho; and
(b) Solid waste accepted at a transfer station and transported for disposal at an MSWLF located outside the state of Idaho.
(4) Applicants shall pay an application fee in an amount to be established by the director at the time of submitting an application to the department. Application fees are intended to promote accountability by ensuring complete and accurate submittal and not to cover the full costs incurred by the department when carrying out its duties during application review and administration.
(5) The legislature shall reevaluate the sufficiency of this section’s fee amounts in the 2030 legislative session and shall adjust the fees accordingly, if necessary.
