Estimated Annual Fee
4 Before the beginning of each fiscal year, the Commission shall
(a) calculate the estimated annual fee payable by an applicant or a licensee for that fiscal year using the estimated full cost of the regulatory activity plan prepared by the Commission for the applicant’s or licensee’s facility or activity; and
(b) notify each applicant or licensee, in writing, of the regulatory activity plan and the estimated annual fee payable.
Quarterly Invoicing
5 (1) On a quarterly basis, the Commission shall send each applicant or licensee an invoice for an amount equal to 25% of the estimated annual fee payable.
(2) Within 30 days after the date of the invoice, the applicant or licensee shall pay to the Commission the amount invoiced.
(3) If changes occur in the Commission’s regulatory activity plan for any facility or activity for a fiscal year, the Commission may re-calculate the estimated fee for that facility or activity for the fiscal year and adjust the amount invoiced accordingly.
Annual Fee Adjustment
6 (1) Each year, following the end of the fiscal year, the Commission shall, for each facility or activity,
(a) calculate the actual full cost;
(b) calculate the fee adjustment by subtracting the estimated annual fee as calculated under section 4 from the actual full cost; and
(c) notify the applicant or licensee in writing of the amount of the actual full cost and the amount of the fee adjustment.
(2) If the fee adjustment calculated under paragraph (1)(b) is
(a) less than the estimated annual fee, the Commission shall refund the difference to the applicant or licensee or apply it against any amount payable by the applicant or licensee to the Commission; or
(b) greater than the estimated annual fee, the Commission shall invoice the applicant or licensee for an amount equal to the difference, and the applicant or licensee shall pay to the Commission that amount within 30 days after the date of the invoice.
Initial Application
7 (1) In the case of an initial application for a facility or activity for which an estimated annual fee has not been calculated, the applicant shall pay to the Commission, with the application, a deposit of
(a) $25,000, if the application is in respect of a facility; or
(b) $5,000, if the application is in respect of a waste nuclear substance activity.
(2) On receipt of the application and deposit, the Commission shall calculate the estimated annual fee payable for the current fiscal year in accordance with paragraph 4(a).
(3) On a quarterly basis over the remaining quarters of the fiscal year after receipt of the application, the Commission shall invoice the applicant for the amount of the estimated annual fee payable, which is calculated on the basis of the number of quarters remaining in the fiscal year and is reduced by the amount of the deposit.
(4) Within 30 days after the date of the invoice, the applicant shall pay to the Commission the amount invoiced.
