SCS/HB 2109 - This act modifies provisions pertaining the Missouri Clean Water Law. SECTION 644.036 - PUBLIC NOTICE REQUIREMENTS Under current law, the public notification requirements for the Clean Water Commission's development of the list of impaired waters required by Section 303(d) of the federal Clean Water Act expire on August 28, 2010. This act extends the expiration date to August 28, 2012. SECTION 644.052 - OPERATING PERMIT FEES FOR CAFOS The act modifies the fees that may be charged by the Department of Natural Resources for operating permits by specifying that the fee shall be $150, to be assessed once every 5 years, for any Class IB and Class IC CAFO that operates under a site-specific permit. SECTION 644.054 - WATER POLLUTION CONTROL FEES Under current law, the authority expires on December 31, 2010 for the Clean Water Commission to charge fees for construction permits, operating permits, and operator's certifications related to water pollution control. This act extends the expiration date to December 31, 2012. The act removes the provision that requires a joint committee to study the water pollution control fees and the state's implementation of the federal clean water program and report by December 31, 2008. The act is similar to SB 272 (2009) and provisions in CCS/SS/SCS/HB 34 (2009). ERIKA JAQUES
