(a)

No permit shall be issued pursuant to Section 41853 to a person for the burning of solid waste which is produced from the ginning of cotton, unless the person pays to the issuing agency a fee of fifteen cents ($0.15) for each bale of cotton ginned that will produce the solid waste that is to be burned.

(b)

Except as provided in subdivision (c), the issuing agency shall deposit monthly the collected fees in the Air Pollution Control Fund.

To pay for administrative costs of issuing the permits, the issuing agency may retain from the fees collected pursuant to this section an amount equal to either the estimated cost of issuing the permits, or 4 percent of the total fees collected, whichever is less. The state board may make an annual audit of the issuing agency to determine the amount of fees retained by an issuing agency.
