  fifty facilities at a single contiguous site; and
    b.  seventy-five  dollars  per facility in excess of two hundred fifty
  facilities at a single contiguous site.
    In no case shall the registration fees  charged  to  an  owner  exceed
  fifty  thousand  dollars  for  storage  facilities  located  at a single
  contiguous site. Fees shall be paid to the department  at  the  time  of
  registration  or  registration  renewal.  Registration  shall be renewed
  every two years or whenever title to a storage facility is  transferred,
  whichever first occurs. Registration shall be on forms and in accordance
  with procedures prescribed by the department.
    2. Within one year of the promulgation of the schedule of registration
  fees  pursuant  to  subdivision  one  of  this section, all owners shall
  identify and register each storage facility with the department.

  promulgation of the schedule of registration fees.  All  fees  collected
  pursuant  to  this  section  shall  be paid to the state comptroller for
  deposit in the miscellaneous special revenue fund, hazardous  substances
  bulk  storage  account,  and  shall  be  subject  to  appropriation  and
  allocation pursuant to the state finance law.    Expenditures  from  the
  hazardous  substances  bulk storage account of the miscellaneous special
