| Description |
Spending fee revenue on the programs they’re meant to support ensures that public funds are used effectively and transparently. Under current law, however, fees collected by Ecology’s laboratory accreditation and landfill methane programs are deposited into General Fund-State, rather than accounts dedicated to those efforts. We propose using dedicated accounts to collect fees generated by both the laboratory accreditation and landfill methane programs. The bill does not impose new fees; it simply establishes accounts for depositing fees. |
