Amend Floor Amendment No. 1 to CSHB 801 by adding a new SECTION to the bill, appropriately numbered, to read as follows: SECTION ____. Section 26.0135(h), Water Code, is amended to read as follows: (h) The commission shall apportion, assess, and recover the reasonable costs of administering the water quality management programs under this section from users of water and wastewater permit holders in the watershed according to the records of the commission generally in proportion to their right, through permit or contract, to use water from and discharge wastewater in the watershed. Irrigation water rights and hydroelectric rights of facilities of less than five megawatts will not be subject to this assessment. The cost to river authorities and others to conduct water quality monitoring and assessment shall be subject to prior review and approval by the commission as to methods of allocation and total amount to be recovered. The commission shall adopt rules to supervise and implement the water quality monitoring, assessment, and associated costs. The rules shall ensure that water users and wastewater dischargers do not pay excessive amounts, that program funds are equitably apportioned among basins, that a river authority may recover no more than the actual costs of administering the water quality management programs called for in this section, and that no municipality shall be assessed cost for any efforts that duplicate water quality management activities described in Section 26.177 of this chapter. The rules concerning the apportionment and assessment of reasonable costs shall provide for a recovery of not more than $5,000,000 annually. Costs recovered by the commission are to be deposited to the credit of the water resource management account and may be used only to accomplish the purposes of this section. The commission may apply not more than 10 percent of the costs recovered annually toward the commission's overhead costs for the administration of this section and the implementation of regional water quality assessments. The commission, with the assistance and input of each river authority, shall file a written report accounting for the costs recovered under this section with the governor, the lieutenant governor, and the speaker of the house of representatives on or before December 1 of each even-numbered year.
