Current through Register Vol. 49, No. 19, November 4, 2024
Part 7002.0410 - FEE DETERMINATION
A. Certification fees under parts 7002.0410 to 7002.0430 are based on the number, type, and complexity of analytical methods that a laboratory is certified to perform.
B. The fee formula is designed to collect revenue equal to the certification program's expenses by using a system of points to equitably distribute the fees among all laboratories certified by the agency. Each fee item is assigned a point value under part 7002.0430. Once the dollar per point value is determined under part 7002.0420, it is multiplied by the total number of points for each application.
C. The agency must annually establish the fee target in an amount necessary to cover costs of reviewing applications, issuing certifications, conducting laboratory evaluations, training, collecting fees, and providing compliance assistance and other anticipated costs of administering the certification program. After the first year of the program, the fee target must be based on the actual costs to administer the certification program in the previous calendar year, with any necessary adjustments to cover costs according to this item.
