Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Environmental Protection Act. Provides that the annual fees applicable to discharges under NPDES permits do not apply to not-for-profit organizations. Effective immediately.

Fiscal Note (Environmental Protection Agency)

HB 3824 would result in the loss of an unspecified amount of revenue to the State (although the Environmental Protection Agency does not expect the lost revenue to exceed $100,000). The Illinois EPA does not currently possess information in its data system that allows it to identify those permit holders designated as not-for-profit organizations under Section 501(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. This information would have to be supplied by each permit holder. However, if the lost revenue results in decreased appropriations to the Illinois EPA, cuts would have to be made in the permitting, inspection, and compliance activities in the Agency's Clean Water program. Since the fee revenue is used to match federal funding for water programs, the program cutbacks may be compounded by lost federal grant revenue.
