06- 096 C.M.R. ch. 860, § 14 - Fee on Waste Oil
A.
Transporter. Each licensed waste oil transporter shall pay a fee to the
Maine Hazardous Waste Fund of 1 cent per gallon on all waste oil collected from
a generator.
Amount (gallons) of waste oil collected from generator x .01 = Fee
B.
Waste Oil
Storage Facility Operator. The operator of a waste oil storage facility
shall pay to the Maine Hazardous Waste Fund a fee of 1 cent per gallon on all
waste oil which he either:
(1) receives
directly from a waste oil generator, or
(2) receives from a transporter who is not a
waste oil dealer:
(Amount from generators + amount from non-dealer transporters) x .01 = Fee
C. Waste oil which is collected as a result
of bulk oil storage tank cleaning operations or the clean-up of oil spills will
in many instances contain an unusually large amount of water. In such cases the
Department may, upon demonstration by the dealer of the source of the waste oil
and the percentage of water in the waste oil, reduce the waste oil fee by up to
50% if it determines that such a reduction is warranted.
D. The waste oil dealer shall not be assessed
a fee on any waste oil for which he can demonstrate that a fee has already been
imposed by this rule and paid.
E.
Payment of the waste oil fee shall cover activity conducted during each
quarter.
F. Payment shall be made
either by a check or money order which signifies the name of the waste oil
dealer.
G. The check or money order
shall be made payable to the Maine Hazardous Waste Fund and mailed with the
quarterly activity report to:
Maine Hazardous Waste Fund
c/o Department of Environmental Protection
State House Station #17
Augusta, ME 04333
H. Waste oil fees and quarterly activity
reports shall be submitted within 15 calendar days of the close of each
quarter.
I. Failure to pay the
waste oil fee may result in suspension or revocation of the dealer's waste oil
license.
