§   1809-c.  Additional  surcharge  required  for  certain  violations
  relating to driving while intoxicated and  driving  while  impaired.  1.
  Notwithstanding  any  other  provision of law, whenever proceedings in a
  court of this state result in a conviction pursuant  to  section  eleven
  hundred  ninety-two  of this chapter, there shall be levied, in addition
  to any sentence or other surcharge required  or  permitted  by  law,  an
  additional surcharge of twenty-five dollars.
2.  The  additional  surcharge provided for in subdivision one of this
  section shall be paid to the  clerk  of  the  court  that  rendered  the
  conviction.  Within the first ten days of the month following collection
  of the surcharge the collecting authority shall determine the amount  of
  surcharge collected and it shall pay such money to the state comptroller
  who  shall  deposit such money in the state treasury pursuant to section
  one hundred twenty-one of the state finance law to  the  credit  of  the
  general fund.
3.  The  provisions  of  subdivision  three  of  section  two  hundred
  twenty-seven, subdivision  four-a  of  section  five  hundred  ten,  and
  subdivision  three  of  section  five  hundred  fourteen of this chapter
  governing actions which may be taken  for  failure  to  pay  a  fine  or
  penalty shall be applicable to the additional surcharge imposed pursuant
  to this section.
4.  For  the  purposes  of this section, the term conviction means and
  includes the conviction of a felony or a misdemeanor for a violation  of
  section  eleven  hundred ninety-two of this chapter for which a youthful
  offender finding was substituted and upon such a finding there shall  be
  levied  an  additional  surcharge,  in addition to any sentence or other
  surcharge required or permitted by law, to the same extent  and  in  the
  same  manner  and  amount provided by this section for conviction of the
  felony or misdemeanor, as the case  may  be,  for  which  such  youthful
  offender finding was substituted.
