020-7 Wyo. Code R. § 7-3

Current through April 27, 2019
Section 7-3 - Costs Generally

(a) "Direct Costs" are operating costs directly assignable to the Program. Direct Costs include salaries, supplies, travel, and other costs incurred by the Program such as, but not limited to, costs associated with processing license applications, inspecting sites, and developing program rules.

(b) "Indirect Costs" are costs not directly assignable to the Program. Indirect Costs include the cost of activities such as human resource management, procurement, and accounting. Indirect Costs include the partial costs of state agencies such as Administration and Information, the Treasurer's Office, and other state agencies providing support or resources to the Program. These are costs which indirectly support the ability of the Program to function, but are not directly related to producing or inspecting a license or the immediate management of those functions. Uncollected fees from licensees will be charged as Indirect Costs for the following year. Indirect Costs will be collected by the Department as described in Section 4, below.

(c) Direct Costs fall into two different categories:

  • (i) "Site Specific Direct Costs" are incurred by the Department in the form of time and resources for a specific applicant or licensee. Site Specific Direct Costs shall include, but are not limited to, the costs of reviewing applications, amendments, inspections, or incident responses.
  • (ii) "Non-Site Specific Direct Costs" are not attributable to a specific licensee, but represent a cost to the Department attributable to the Program. These types of costs shall include, but are not limited to, materials such as paper and other office supplies, training of staff, development of guidance documents, and other general administrative costs.

(d) The accumulation of costs can be described as follows:

  • (i) "Total Direct Costs" are the combination of the Site Specific Direct Costs and Non-Site Specific Direct Costs.
  • (ii) "Total Costs" are the sum of Site Specific Direct Costs, Non-Site Specific Direct Costs, and Indirect Costs.

(e) "Fiscal Year" is the twelve (12) month period from July 1 through June 30, as used by the State of Wyoming for budget formulation and execution.

(f) "Projected Costs" are the most recent two (2) year average of Total Costs assumed by the licensee.
