Section 469B.294 - Fees for certification; rules.

By rule and after hearing, the Director of the State Department of Energy may adopt a schedule of reasonable fees that the State Department of Energy may require of applicants for preliminary or final certification of an energy conservation project under ORS 469B.270 to 469B.306. Before the adoption or revision of the fees, the department shall estimate the total cost of the program to the department. The fees shall be used to recover the anticipated cost of administering and enforcing the provisions of ORS 469B.270 to 469B.306, including filing, investigating, granting and rejecting applications for certification and ensuring compliance with ORS 469B.270 to 469B.306 and shall be designed not to exceed the total cost estimated by the department. Any excess fees shall be held by the department and shall be used by the department to reduce any future fee increases. The fee may vary according to the size and complexity of the project. The fee is not considered part of the cost of the project to be certified. [2011 c.730 §46]
