in substantial furtherance of the unlawful purchase, shall be
punished by imprisonment in the county jail for a term not to exceed
one year, or by imprisonment in the state prison for two, three, or
four years.
   (b) In consideration of the constitutional right to counsel
afforded by the Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution and

11372.5.  (a) Every person who is convicted of a violation of
Section 11350, 11351, 11351.5, 11352, 11355, 11358, 11359, 11361,
11363, 11364, 11368, 11375, 11377, 11378, 11378.5, 11379, 11379.5,
11379.6, 11380, 11380.5, 11382, 11383, 11390, 11391, or 11550 or

amount of fifty dollars ($50) for each separate offense. The court
shall increase the total fine necessary to include this increment.
   With respect to those offenses specified in this subdivision for
which a fine is not authorized by other provisions of law, the court
shall, upon conviction, impose a fine in an amount not to exceed
fifty dollars ($50), which shall constitute the increment prescribed
by this section and which shall be in addition to any other penalty
prescribed by law.
   (b) The county treasurer shall maintain a criminalistics
laboratories fund. The sum of fifty dollars ($50) shall be deposited
into the fund for every conviction under Section 11350, 11351,
11351.5, 11352, 11355, 11358, 11359, 11361, 11363, 11364, 11368,
11375, 11377, 11378, 11378.5, 11379, 11379.5, 11379.6, 11380,
11380.5, 11382, 11383, 11390, 11391, or 11550, subdivision (a) or (c)
of Section 11357, or subdivision (a) of Section 11360 of this code,
or Section 4230 of the Business and Professions Code, in addition to
fines, forfeitures, and other moneys which are transmitted by the
courts to the county treasurer pursuant to Section 11502. The
deposits shall be made prior to any transfer pursuant to Section
11502. The county may retain an amount of this money equal to its
administrative cost incurred pursuant to this section. Moneys in the
criminalistics laboratories fund shall, except as otherwise provided
in this section, be used exclusively to fund (1) costs incurred by
criminalistics laboratories providing microscopic and chemical
analyses for controlled substances, in connection with criminal
investigations conducted within both the incorporated or
unincorporated portions of the county, (2) the purchase and
maintenance of equipment for use by these laboratories in performing
the analyses, and (3) for continuing education, training, and
scientific development of forensic scientists regularly employed by
these laboratories. Moneys in the criminalistics laboratory fund
shall be in addition to any allocations pursuant to existing law. As
used in this section, "criminalistics laboratory" means a laboratory
operated by, or under contract with, a city, county, or other public
agency, including a criminalistics laboratory of the Department of
Justice, (1) which has not less than one regularly employed forensic
scientist engaged in the analysis of solid-dose controlled
substances, and (2) which is registered as an analytical laboratory
with the Drug Enforcement Administration of the United States
Department of Justice for the possession of all scheduled controlled
substances. In counties served by criminalistics laboratories of the
Department of Justice, amounts deposited in the criminalistics
laboratories fund, after deduction of appropriate and reasonable
county overhead charges not to exceed 5 percent attributable to the
collection thereof, shall be paid by the county treasurer once a
month to the Controller for deposit into the state General Fund, and
shall be excepted from the expenditure requirements otherwise
prescribed by this subdivision.
   (c) The county treasurer shall, at the conclusion of each fiscal
year, determine the amount of any funds remaining in the special fund
established pursuant to this section after expenditures for that
fiscal year have been made for the purposes herein specified. The
board of supervisors may, by resolution, assign the treasurer's duty
to determine the amount of remaining funds to the auditor or another
county officer. The county treasurer shall annually distribute those
surplus funds in accordance with the allocation scheme for
distribution of fines and forfeitures set forth in Section 11502.

11372.7.  (a) Except as otherwise provided in subdivision (b) or
(e), each person who is convicted of a violation of this chapter
shall pay a drug program fee in an amount not to exceed one hundred
fifty dollars ($150) for each separate offense. The court shall
increase the total fine, if necessary, to include this increment,
which shall be in addition to any other penalty prescribed by law.
   (b) The court shall determine whether or not the person who is
convicted of a violation of this chapter has the ability to pay a
drug program fee. If the court determines that the person has the
ability to pay, the court may set the amount to be paid and order the
person to pay that sum to the county in a manner that the court
believes is reasonable and compatible with the person's financial
ability. In its determination of whether a person has the ability to
pay, the court shall take into account the amount of any fine imposed
upon that person and any amount that person has been ordered to pay
in restitution. If the court determines that the person does not have
the ability to pay a drug program fee, the person shall not be
required to pay a drug program fee.
   (c) The county treasurer shall maintain a drug program fund. For
every drug program fee assessed and collected pursuant to
subdivisions (a) and (b), an amount equal to this assessment shall be
deposited into the fund for every conviction pursuant to this
chapter, in addition to fines, forfeitures, and other moneys which
are transmitted by the courts to the county treasurer pursuant to
Sections 11372.5 and 11502. These deposits shall be made prior to any
transfer pursuant to Section 11502. Amounts deposited in the drug
program fund shall be allocated by the administrator of the county's
drug program to drug abuse programs in the schools and the community,
subject to the approval of the board of supervisors, as follows:
   (1) The moneys in the fund shall be allocated through the planning
process established pursuant to Sections 11983, 11983.1, 11983.2,
and 11983.3.
   (2) A minimum of 33 percent of the fund shall be allocated to
primary prevention programs in the schools and the community. Primary
prevention programs developed and implemented under this article
shall emphasize cooperation in planning and program implementation
among schools and community drug abuse agencies, and shall
demonstrate coordination through an interagency agreement among
county offices of education, school districts, and the county drug
program administrator. These primary prevention programs may include:
   (A) School- and classroom-oriented programs, including, but not
limited to, programs designed to encourage sound decisionmaking, an
awareness of values, an awareness of drugs and their effects,
enhanced self-esteem, social and practical skills that will assist
students toward maturity, enhanced or improved school climate and
relationships among all school personnel and students, and
furtherance of cooperative efforts of school- and community-based
personnel.
   (B) School- or community-based nonclassroom alternative programs,
or both, including, but not limited to, positive peer group programs,
programs involving youth and adults in constructive activities
designed as alternatives to drug use, and programs for special target
groups, such as women, ethnic minorities, and other high-risk,
high-need populations.
   (C) Family-oriented programs, including, but not limited to,
programs aimed at improving family relationships and involving
parents constructively in the education and nurturing of their
children, as well as in specific activities aimed at preventing drug
abuse.
   (d) Moneys deposited into a county drug program fund pursuant to
this section shall supplement, and shall not supplant, any local
funds made available to support the county's drug abuse prevention
and treatment efforts.
   (e) This section shall not apply to any person convicted of a
violation of subdivision (b) of Section 11357 of the Health and
Safety Code.

11373.  (a) Whenever any person who is otherwise eligible for
probation is granted probation by the trial court after conviction
for a violation of any controlled substance offense under this
division, the trial court shall, as a condition of probation, order
that person to secure education or treatment from a local community
agency designated by the court, if the service is available and the
person is likely to benefit from the service.
   If the defendant is a minor, the trial court shall also order his
or her parents or guardian to participate in the education or
treatment to the extent the court determines that participation will
aid the education or treatment of the minor.
   If a minor is found by a juvenile court to have been in possession
of any controlled substance, in addition to any other order it may
make, the juvenile court shall order the minor to receive education
or treatment from a local community agency designated by the court,
if the service is available and the person is likely to benefit from
the service, and it shall also order his or her parents or guardian
to participate in the education or treatment to the extent the court
determines that participation will aid the education or treatment of
the minor.
   (b) The willful failure to complete a court ordered education or
treatment program shall be a circumstance in aggravation for purposes
of sentencing for any subsequent prosecution for a violation of
Section 11353, 11354, or 11380. The failure to complete an education
or treatment program because of the person's inability to pay the
costs of the program or because of the unavailability to the
defendant of appropriate programs is not a willful failure to
complete the program.

11374.  Every person who violates or fails to comply with any
provision of this division, except one for which a penalty is
otherwise in this division specifically provided, is guilty of a
misdemeanor punishable by a fine in a sum not less than thirty
dollars ($30) nor more than five hundred dollars ($500), or by
imprisonment for not less than 15 nor more than 180 days, or by both.

11374.5.  (a) Any manufacturer of a controlled substance who
disposes of any hazardous substance that is a controlled substance or
a chemical used in, or is a byproduct of, the manufacture of a
controlled substance in violation of any law regulating the disposal
of hazardous substances or hazardous waste is guilty of a public
offense punishable by imprisonment in the state prison for two,
three, or four years or in the county jail not exceeding one year.
   (b) (1) In addition to any other penalty or liability imposed by
law, a person who is convicted of violating subdivision (a), or any
person who is convicted of the manufacture, sale, possession for
sale, possession, transportation, or disposal of any hazardous
substance that is a controlled substance or a chemical used in, or is
a byproduct of, the manufacture of a controlled substance in
violation of any law, shall pay a penalty equal to the amount of the
actual cost incurred by the state or local agency to remove and
dispose of the hazardous substance that is a controlled substance or
a chemical used in, or is a byproduct of, the manufacture of a
controlled substance and to take removal action with respect to any
release of the hazardous substance or any items or materials
contaminated by that release, if the state or local agency requests
the prosecuting authority to seek recovery of that cost. The court
shall transmit all penalties collected pursuant to this subdivision
to the county treasurer of the county in which the court is located
for deposit in a special account in the county treasury. The county
treasurer shall pay that money at least once a month to the agency
that requested recovery of the cost for the removal action. The
county may retain up to 5 percent of any assessed penalty for
appropriate and reasonable administrative costs attributable to the
collection and disbursement of the penalty.
   (2) If the Department of Toxic Substances Control has requested
recovery of the cost of removing the hazardous substance that is a
controlled substance or a chemical used in, or is a byproduct of, the
manufacture of a controlled substance or taking removal action with
respect to any release of the hazardous substance, the county
treasurer shall transfer funds in the amount of the penalty collected
to the Treasurer, who shall deposit the money in the Illegal Drug
Lab Cleanup Account, which is hereby created in the General Fund in
the State Treasury. The Department of Toxic Substances Control may
expend the money in the Illegal Drug Lab Cleanup Account, upon
appropriation by the Legislature, to cover the cost of taking removal
actions pursuant to Section 25354.5.
   (3) If a local agency and the Department of Toxic Substances
Control have both requested recovery of removal costs with respect to
a hazardous substance that is a controlled substance or a chemical
used in, or is a byproduct of, the manufacture of a controlled
substance, the county treasurer shall apportion any penalty collected
among the agencies involved in proportion to the costs incurred.

meaning:
   (1) "Dispose" means to abandon, deposit, intern, or otherwise
discard as a final action after use has been achieved or a use is no
