1. In addition to the fees for an operating permit, the Commission shall adopt regulations prescribing the appropriate fee to be imposed on the operator of a mine with the potential to emit mercury, and the schedule for payment of the fee.

The Department shall advise the Commission in prescribing an appropriate fee pursuant to this subsection.
2. Each operator of a mine with the potential to emit mercury shall pay the fee prescribed by the Commission in accordance with the schedule prescribed by the Commission.
3. As used in this section, “mine with the potential to emit mercury” means a mine that, as determined by the Director, has the potential to emit mercury.
