Fiscal Note for Bill as Amended by Committee Amendment "     "
Committee: Natural Resources
Fiscal Note Required: Yes
             
Fiscal Note
Potential current biennium revenue increase - Other Special Revenue Funds
Fiscal Detail and Notes
This legislation would allow the Department of Environmental Protection to approve additional discharges which are not allowed under current law, increasing permit fees.  Since these aquatic pesticide discharges would only be proposed when needed to address public health concerns and would likely be covered under future general permits, the amount of any potential increase in Other Special Revenue Funds cannot be determined at this time.
