Next ALC Rules meeting: Nov 19, 2026 · 10:00 AM · Room A, MAC Meeting details

Reviewed by ALC Arkansas Code § 25-15-105(b)(2)(A) provides that an agency assessing or imposing a fee or penalty shall promulgate the fee or penalty by rule. Arkansas Code § 25-15-105(b)(2)(B) follows and provides that an agency is not required to promulgate a fee or penalty by rule if the specific amount of the fee or penalty is set by statute. If the agency answered yes to the previous question, can the amounts or rates for haul fees and waste container fees be found in the Arkansas Code or the agency’s rules? If so, where? If not, does the board plan to promulgate the fee amounts? RESPONSE: The District’s fees that are being charged are compliant with the limitations set out specifically in Title 8 Chapter 6.

Reviewed by ALC This subdivision provides the Executive Director of the Upper Southwest Regional Solid Waste Management Board may establish haul fee and waste container fees on a case-by-case basis, depending on each job’s time requirement and distance from the 93 regional landfill. (Emphasis added.) Are these fees currently being levied in practice? If so, how are they calculated and when are they imposed? If not, when or under what circumstances does the agency anticipate imposing these fees? RESPONSE: Yes, the District is currently charging customers for these services provided, and they use the distance and the time required to service a particular location or job based on each situation to calculate the fee.

Reviewed by ALC This subdivision seems to be based on Arkansas Code § 17-97- 201(a)(3)(D), which provides that at least one (1) of the nine (9) members appointed to the board under subdivision (a)(2) of the statute “shall be a licensed psychologist who is a board certified behavior analyst or qualified behavior analyst or has a background and experience providing behavior analysis services.” The rule’s language appears to differ from the statute by making the behavior analyst a part of the nine (9) member membership requirement enumerated in Arkansas Code § 17-97-201(a)(2). Is there a reason that the rule appears to differ from the statute? RESPONSE: We agree with this comment; we have modified the language so that the new board member requirement fits into the four (4) psychologists listed in (C)(ii). There will still only be nine board 34 members that can serve on the board.

Arkansas Code § 25-15-105(b)(2)(B) follows and provides that an agency is not required to promulgate a fee or penalty by rule if the specific amount of the fee or penalty is set by statute. This section does not appear to specify an amount for tipping fees. Are tipping fees provided for elsewhere in the board’s rules or the Arkansas Code? If not, does the board plan to promulgate the fee amount? RESPONSE: The District’s tipping fees are compliant with the limitations set out specifically in Title 8 Chapter 6.

Reviewed by ALC This section appears to be premised on Arkansas Code § 8-6- 706(c) and states an “interested person or persons” may appeal the Board’s decision regarding a certificate of need to the Secretary of the Department of Energy and Environment. However, Arkansas Code § 8-6-706(c) states that an “interested party to a certificate of need determination by a board may appeal the decision to the Director of the Division of Environmental Quality.” Is there a reason the rule states an appeal may be made to the Secretary of the Department of Energy and Environment, but the statute says it may be made to the Director of the Division of Environmental Quality? RESPONSE: No reason other than oversight. In accordance with law, we wish to see this rephrased appropriately. [The agency subsequently determined that no changes would be made at this time.]
