§27A-2-11-401.5. Excess monies accruing to the Used Tire Recycling Indemnity Fund.

To the extent that monies accruing to the Used Tire Recycling Indemnity Fund exceed the monies needed for the purposes previously specified in the Oklahoma Used Tire Recycling Act, the Department of Environmental Quality may be reimbursed from the remaining funds for necessary costs associated with remediation of sites at which used tires or other wastes incidental to the used tires present a threat to human health or the environment, or for projects to increase market demand for products made from Oklahoma used tires. The Solid Waste Management Advisory Council shall recommend and the Environmental Quality Board shall adopt rules governing the types of market development projects that may qualify for reimbursement. To the extent possible, the rules shall favor and the Department shall prioritize projects with the greatest potential to benefit schools, communities and local governments. Upon its receipt of documentation from the Department showing expenditures relating to the remediation of such sites or market development projects, the Tax Commission shall reimburse the Department for its documented expenditures.
