Sec. 3.5. (a) For the disposal of hazardous waste in Indiana, the fees are as follows:

(1) For hazardous waste disposed of in a disposal facility, eleven dollars and fifty cents ($11.50) per ton.  If hazardous waste is mixed with or dissolved or suspended in water or another liquid at the time it is disposed of in a disposal facility, the entire mixture, solution, or suspension disposed of is considered hazardous waste disposed of in a disposal facility for the purposes of this subdivision.

(2) For hazardous waste disposed of by underground injection, eleven dollars and fifty cents ($11.50) per ton.  However, a person required to pay disposal fees under this subdivision is not liable for more than twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) in disposal fees under this subdivision for all hazardous waste disposed of by the person by underground injection in one (1) calendar year.

(b) Fees imposed under subsection (a)(1) shall be paid by the operator of the disposal facility at which the hazardous waste is disposed of.  For hazardous waste disposed of by underground injection at a location other than a disposal facility, the fee imposed on the disposal of the hazardous waste under subsection (a)(2) shall be paid by the person disposing of the hazardous waste.

(c) Fees imposed under this section begin accruing on January 1 of each year.  The fees that accrue under this section during a calendar year shall be paid to the department on or before March 1 of the following year.

(d) The fees imposed under this section shall be based on the total tonnage of hazardous waste disposed of.  The fees do not apply to the treatment or storage of hazardous waste in a disposal facility.

(e) The fees paid to the department under this section shall be deposited and paid over as provided in section 3.6 of this chapter.
