In addition to the hazardous waste disposal fee assessed by the state under § 34A-11-25 , a county or municipality may impose and levy a hazardous waste disposal fee upon the disposal of hazardous waste at any hazardous waste disposal facility within, or operated under, its jurisdiction excluding those facilities disposing of hazardous waste in a process of energy recovery. Fees imposed under this section are in addition to all other fees and taxes levied by law. The incineration or thermal destruction of hazardous waste is considered disposal for the purpose of this fee.
The fee imposed by this section shall be paid by the owner of the hazardous waste disposal facility and remitted to the county or municipal treasurer. The obligation of the owner to pay the fee accrues at the time hazardous waste is disposed of at a hazardous waste disposal facility. The owner of the facility may collect these fees from persons disposing of hazardous waste at the owner's facility. The fee imposed by this section is payable on or before the fifteenth day of the month next succeeding the month in which the fee accrued together with a return on forms prescribed by the county or municipal treasurer.
Each person required to pay the fee imposed by this section shall keep complete and accurate records in a form required by the county or municipal treasurer.
The county or municipality may distribute shares of this fee to the municipalities and school districts within its boundary as it deems appropriate considering the location of the facility and the impacts on the representation jurisdiction.
