FISCAL ANALYSIS

The Department of Health and the Department of Revenue assume they would not be fiscally impacted by this proposal.
The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) assumes in FY 1998 the land disposal tax generated approximately $97,000. These revenue vary from year to year depending on the disposal method chosen by the generator. The DNR anticipates the annual revenues to be approximately $100,000 per year.
The DNR also assumes this proposal will extend the Hazardous Waste Generator tax. This tax generates $1,500,000.
