A. Upon determining that the owner of a stationary source owes an annual permit maintenance fee, the department will mail a bill for the fee to that owner no later than August 1.

B. Within 30 days following the date of the postmark on the bill, the owner shall respond in one of the following ways:

1. The owner may pay the fee in full.

2. The owner may request that the fee amount be revised if the owner can document that the status of the permits on which the fee was based is in error. This request shall include appropriate source identification data, copies of all valid air permits, the revised fee amount, adequate supporting documentation, and other information as the department may require. The owner shall file the request with the appropriate regional office in a form acceptable to the department. If the department approves the request, the revised fee amount shall be paid in full within 30 days of the date of approval.
