If you run a waste disposal facility, you need to pay quarterly fees to the State, based on how much garbage you handle. The current base fee is $1.34 per ton but can't go above $1.40 unless you're in a special program. From July 2012, an extra $0.12 per ton is added if your landfill is part of the State's special fund for managing landfill closure and problems. However, this extra fee only applies if enough landfills that handle at least half of the 2010's total waste sign up by early 2012.

The Department in charge will inform the State Board about any rate changes or about whether the extra fee is activated. Plus, they make sure all fees collected are paid correctly.

This law states that after covering refunds and administrative collection costs, the money from certain fees is placed into a special account called the Integrated Waste Management Account. This account is part of a larger fund.

This California statute explains how money from specific fees related to waste management is handled. After covering refunds and the cost of collection, this money goes into a special fund called the State Solid Waste Postclosure and Corrective Action Trust Fund.

The fund is used for several activities that help manage solid waste, like fixing problems (corrective action), managing waste sites after they close (postclosure activities), and covering administrative expenses. Additionally, start-up costs related to the implementation of the waste management program before the fees started coming in are also covered by this fund.

This law instructs the state board to create rules and regulations to implement Section 48000. These rules should cover how collections are handled, what reporting is required, how refunds are processed, and how appeals are conducted.

This rule states that the state board can't use more than half a percent of the total money it receives or expects to receive in a fiscal year for administrative purposes related to this chapter in that same year.

In California, money in a specific account is set aside to support recycling and waste management efforts, particularly by the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery. This includes tasks the state and regional water boards perform at solid waste disposal sites. The aim is to ensure there's enough funding each year to cover regulatory activities at landfills without double-charging fees to those disposing of waste, as long as certain fee waiver conditions are met. However, if not enough money is collected or the budget gets cut, funding for these programs will be reduced equally across the board.

This law explains that any money the board receives must go into the Integrated Waste Management Account. The funds can only be used for specified purposes as determined by the Legislature. If there’s no specific purpose mentioned, the money should be used for the general goals of this division, except for Part 6, which is funded differently through certain fees.

This law allows the board to waive all fees for operators of small solid waste landfills that take in an average of less than five tons of waste per day.

This law states that recycled materials and certain inert wastes, like rock and concrete, that are taken out of the regular trash (waste stream) and not dumped in a landfill don't have to pay certain fees. Inert waste can be used to help fix up (reclaim) old or current areas where surface mining has happened, as long as the work is officially approved. Fees won’t apply if the waste is used for these purposes. Note that any waste considered dangerous or a health hazard doesn’t count as inert waste here. This rule stays until new regulations replace it, at which point it will be repealed unless changed by future laws.

This law specifies that recycled materials and inert waste, when taken out of the waste stream and not dumped in a landfill, won't be counted for certain fee purposes outlined in another section. It will only be in effect once specific regulations are established by the board.

This law requires that by January 1, 2004, a board must create regulations to oversee how construction and demolition waste, as well as certain non-reactive waste, are managed at mine reclamation sites. It ensures these wastes are handled responsibly and establishes rules for their management.

'Inert waste' is defined as it was in 2002, referring to waste materials that don't easily decompose or react, like concrete or asphalt.

If a landfill operator in California charges a state fee for waste management, they can also add a small fee (up to 5%) to their service users. This extra charge is meant to cover the costs of handling the state's fee. The added fee should ideally match the actual costs of managing this financial process.
