Fiscal Year | Probable Revenue Gain/(Loss) from Dry Cleaning Facility Release Acct 5093 |
---|---|
2006 | ($716,000) |
2007 | ($962,000) |
2008 | ($971,000) |
2009 | ($981,000) |
2010 | ($990,000) |
Costs to implement changes proposed by the bill are not expected to be significant to the TCEQ.
The revenue loss shown above is the amount estimated by the Comptroller of Public Accounts, and it represents a loss of revenue associated with the expansion of the $250 annual registration fee for dry cleaners opting out of participation in the program and the reduction of the $1,000 annual registration fee to $750 for drop stations that have never been dry cleaning facilities.
The bill's provisions allowing distributors to retain 2 percent of fee collections and the bill's provisions exempting non-chlorinating solvents from the solvent fee are not expected to result in significant losses in revenue to the Dry Cleaning Facility Release Account No. 5093.
