HCS HB 774 -- WASTE TIRES (Sander)

The waste tire fee expired on January 1, 2004.  This substitute
reimposes the fee until January 1, 2008.

The substitute also requires the Department of Natural Resources
to give preference to contract bids for waste tire cleanups from
vendors that are Missouri residents, employ Missouri workers, or
use the tires for fuel or to manufacture a useful product.  The
department may consider prior performance in the awarding of the
contract.  A vendor will not be given a preference for a bid to
fill a landfill with waste tires, waste tire chips, or waste tire
shreds, including landfill cover.

The collection fee retained by the Department of Revenue is
reduced from 4% to 2%.

FISCAL NOTE:  Estimated Cost on General Revenue Fund of $6,334 in
FY 2005, $0 in FY 2006, and $0 in FY 2007.  Estimated Income on
