           INTRODUCTION AND EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
      This report presents  the  results  of a. stud/ of States'  current  use of
Alternative Financing Mechanisms (AFMs) to support environmental programs.  The
study focused on the  use of AFMs to fund the administrative and operating costs
of regulatory programs  (rather than project  or facility construction costs).

      Information on  States' use of AFMs was obtained from Program Managers in
eleven States: Florida,  Georgia,  Iowa, Louisiana, Missouri, Nebraska, New Jersey,
Ohio,  Oregon,  Pennsylvania,  and  West  Virginia.  Appendix  I  contains  brief
descriptions of  AFMs currently being used.  Appendix  II contains a  detailed
Profile of each State's current use of AFMs.

      The major findings are:

      •     Many States are already using or considering the use of AFMs in their
            environmental  programs.   Nearly one-third  of  all  States  make
            widespread  use of AFMs.

      •     States already using AFMs have  knowledge  that  could be  tapped by
            other States.  Many States have successfully  used AFMs to fund part
            or all of their program operating costs.

      •     The real  or perceived  barriers to instituting or expanding the use
            of AFMs can be overcome.   State officials with experience in using
            AFMs have worked out ways to overcome the barriers and sharing of
            information can alleviate some of these concerns.

      The Program Evaluation Division  (PED) in the Office of  Management Systems
and  Evaluation  (OMSE)--a  subdivision  of EPA's Office  of Policy,  Planning and
Evaluation (OPPE) conducted  this study.  The PED project ream consisted of Nancy
Zahedi, Project  Manager,  Joe  Kruger  and Jamie Hill.   Water Simon  was Project
Secretary.  Phil Paparodis of OPPE's Office of Policy Analysis contributed to
the  study.

      The study was undertaken at the request of Rebecca Hanmer,  Acting Assistant
Administrator,  Office  of Water.  The  Office of Water has  initiated  a State
Funding Study to examine anticipated  State funding problems  resulting from new
requirements of  the  amendments  to the Water Quality Act and the Safe Drinking
Water Act.  For additional information about either the OPPE study or the Office
of Water study,  or to give comments, suggestions, and additional information on
AFMs, please call or write  to  Elizabeth Miner,  Program Manager, State Funding
Study, Office of Water, U.S. Environmental Protection  Agency, WH-546,

                      I.   STUDY  METHODOLOGY
To obtain information on States' use of AFMs,  the Project Team took the following
steps:

Reviewed previous studies on State use  of AFMs

•     The Team reviewed studies by the  National Governor's Association (1982),
      the Office of Solid Waste (1982), the Office of Air and Radiation (1985),
      the Office of Marine  and Estuarine Protection (1987)  and the Office of
      Underground Storage Tanks  (1988).


Solicited current information from Regional  Offices  on State use of AFMs

•     EPA Regional Offices were asked to provide current  information on States'
      use of AFMs in their environmental programs.


Selected 11 States for case  studies

•     Based on the information obtained from the  previous studies and Regional
      Offices,  all  50  States  were  placed  in one  of  three  categories:   (1)
      widespread use  of AFMs, (2)  moderate use, or  (3) low use.   Those in
      Category One use AFMs  in the three major regulatory programs  (air, water,
      hazardous  waste).   Those  in  Category Three  use  AFMs  in  one  of these
      programs or none.

•     Eleven States were then selected to provide  a cross-section of high to  low
      use  of AFMs.   These  States  were  Florida,   Georgia,  Iowa,  Louisiana,
      Missouri,  Nebraska,  New Jersey,  Ohio,  Oregon, Pennsylvania,  and  West
      Virginia.

•     More than  40  State environmental Program  Managers in these States were
      interviewed to determine, among other  things, whether AFMs are being used
      or why they are not, how they  were put into place,  the amount of revenue
      being generated, the legal  and political issues associated with State  use
      of AFMs, and how AFM revenues  are used.

•     The Project Team interviewed  Program Managers  in the water  quality, air,
      hazardous  waste,  underground  storage  tank (UST),   underground injection
      control (UIC), drinking water,  and solid waste programs.

•     See Appendices  I  and  II for  descriptions  of  AFMs and individual State
      profiles.

Obtained  information on  selected other innovative mechanisms

•     The  project  team  also gathered some  information on a  few innovative
      mechanisms not covered in the  case studies.

-------
  II.  THE BASICS OF ALTERNATIVE FINANCING MECHANISMS
An Alternative Financing Mechanism (AFM)  is  any mechanism--other  than  general
revenue appropriations  or Federal  grants--used to fund program costs


AFMs are used to raise revenues, to achieve environmental goals, or to do both.

•     The most common use of AFMS  is to raise revenues  to  fund program costs.
      To a lesser  degree,  AFMs  are  also used to achieve specific environmental
      goals.    When  AFMs  are used for a combination  of  these purposes,   the
      objectives  may conflict.   For example,  a hazardous  waste  disposal  fee
      intended to  encourage greater recycling may bring in less revenue than one
      aimed solely at raising revenue.


Taxes and user fees are the most commonly  used mechanisms to fund operating and
administrative program costs.

•     Fees are generally used when program activities provide a special  service
      or a benefit to the fee payers.  Ideally, fee levels will at least  reflect
      the cost of  providing  the service.

•     Dedicated taxes are  used when program funding needs are large or when the
      benefits of  an  activity are broad-based.   All or part of the revenue  from
      levies  such  as  sales,  property,  or  commodity taxes,  can  be  dedicated to
      specific environmental programs. Dedicated taxes can fund direct services
      or general  services.  They can also be environmentally based (e.g.,  tax
      on disposal  of  solid waste)  or more broadly based.


In practice,  the distinction  between user fees and dedicated taxes is not  very
rigid.

•     A number of  State legislatures have enacted fees that could just as easily
      be called taxes.  The willingness to  call an AFM a  "tax" rather than a
      "fee" often  depends largely  on political factors.


Revenues from AFMs can be either dedicated or not dedicated.

•     Revenues from  fees  or  taxes  can be dedicated to a specific program or go
      to a State treasury; in the latter case,  they may provide no direct  benefit
      to a program. A third possibility involves deposit of tax or fee revenues
      in a special fund to be  used by  a  program  for  operating  costs or other
      specifically designated purposes (e.g.,  research activities,  emergency
      response).

-------
             III. STATE  USE  OF AFMs:  AN OVERVIEW
Most States are already using  or  planning  to use AFMs in their environmental
programs

•     Almost one-third of all States make widespread use of AFMs (i.e.,  use AFMs
      in all three major environmental programs).  New Jersey and Oregon are at
      the forefront.  New Jersey uses AFMs to fund the greatest proportion of
      program costs  relative  to other States, while  Oregon uses  the largest
      number of mechanisms.

•     Less than one-half of all States make  minimal or no use of AFMs  (i.e., use
      AFMs in one  regulatory program or none).  All the other States  fall between
      these two categories.

•     In the last  ten years, particularly in the 1980s, State use of  AFMs has
      increased substantially.   The use of AFMs in new programs, such as the UST
      program, often has been more acceptable to  State legislatures than their
      use in existing programs, even in States not using AFMs in other programs.

•     Many  of  the eleven States included  in this  study have AFM legislation
      pending or are about to implement new AFMs.


Permit  feers  are  the  most  widely  used  alternative  financing  mechanism.
particularly in the air and water quality programs

•     Of the eleven  States, seven use both air and water quality permit fees.
      One of the others,  West Virginia,  plans to  start using fees  in its water
      program beginning in June 1988.   Iowa has the  authority to charge permit
      fees but does not do so.   Nebraska and Georgia also use no permit fees in
      the air and water quality programs.

•     States  vary in the  amounts  of their  permit  fees and  in how  fees are
      determined.  For example, in Missouri, NPDES facilities  are assessed a flat
      fee of $75 every five years.  In New  Jersey, however,  where NFDES permit
      fees  depend  in part on the environmental impact of discharges  from the
      permitted facility,  one facility was assessed a permit fee of $404,000 last
      year.


There is  a great deal of variation in  the extent  to which AFM revenues fund
program costs

•     In the water program, the eleven States' revenues from fees  range  from  1
      to 90 percent  of program costs.   In  the  air program,  fee  revenues range
      from  4 to 50 percent of total program costs.


Fee  levels  are set in a number of ways

•     Fees  can be  fixed, i.e., everyone pays  the same amount.  In Pennsylvania,
      for example, a  flat fee of $500 is charged for all NPDES permits.

-------
•     Fees can be graduated.   In Ohio,  for example,  air  permit  fees  are  based
      on the size of the source.

•     Fees can be based on  environmental impact  and  program  costs.   Among the
      eleven States, this  is  a Less common method of  determining  fee  levels.
      New Jersey calculates NPDES permit fees based on the environmental impact
      of discharges and the cost of running the  program.   The Louisiana NPDES
      program uses a somewhat similar method.


States using AFMs think that administrative costs are reasonable and that their
systems work well

•     Among the Program Managers interviewed,  those who have had experience with
      AFMs expressed no real  concerns.   Some had encountered problems  in the
      early stages  of  using AFMs,  but  these problems  had been  satisfactorily
      resolved.  Program Managers who have not had experience with AFMs or who
      are jusc starting to use them  tended  to  express more  concerns  about
      potential administrative problems.

•     Administrative costs  in  the eleven States  range from 1 to 25 percent of
      AFM revenues.  Programs  with  high percentages  tend to  have more  complex
      fee structures and accounting systems or  allocate  a fixed percentage of
      revenue  for administrative purposes.


Fine or penalty revenues  can also be used to finance program operating costs
(although this  is unusual^.

•     In general, States have been reluctant to finance regulatory programs with
      revenues  from fines    Several Program  Managers  said  legislatures are
      concerned that this  type of funding could  lead  to unnecessary enforcement
      actions.

•     In most  cases,  fine  revenues are deposited in  State  treasuries  or are
      designated for specific uses.  For example, fines levied in Pennsylvania's
      water program are deposited in a fund designated for equipment purchases.
      Other States  use these revenues  for such  activities  as hazardous waste
      cleanups  and  emergency response.

IV. STATE CHARACTERISTICS THAT INFLUENCE USE OF AFMs
                       ECONOMIC AND FISCAL CONDITIONS
       facing severe ecc
substitute for general revenues.
is  forced to
      Economic  necessity  has  forced  some  States  to use fees.  For example,  in
      Louisiana, poor economic conditions have led to the extensive use of fees.
      Recently,  the State temporarily increased its environmental fee scale by
      60 percent.  As a result, the State  revenue portion of its environmental
      program is now almost entirely covered by fees.
      Over time, States acquire experience in using fees and are able  to run fee
      programs more efficiently.  In addition, given the many competing demands
      on a State's budget, there is  little incentive for legislatures to return
      to funding environmental programs with general revenues once fees are in
      place.   In  the  case of  Oregon,  the  legislature has  adopted statutory
      restrictions  on  the use  of general  revenues  for  environmental programs.
      Such restrictions  make   it  difficult  to  increase  the  proportion  of
      environmental program costs funded by general revenues.
                            POLITICAL ATMOSPHERE

Some State legislatures have an anti-tax ethic and consider user fees taxes in
disguise

•     Some State legislators ardently oppose adopting any new alternative revenue
      generating mechanisms.   In  one  State,  a powerful legislator has blocked
      most of the fees that have been proposed by the State environmental agency.

Other States fear that high fees vill harm  industry or deter businesses from
locating in the State

•     Fear of  appearing "anti-business" has led some States to oppose fees.  In
      one State, the Governor's office has looked unfavorably upon  any factor
      that might discourage businesses from  bringing new jobs into  the State.
      On the other hand,  many States  feel fees have no influence on industry
      siting decisions because- they constitute such a small percent  of overall
      business expenses.

Some States have adopted  a  "make  the polluter oav" philosophy

•     Some  State  legislatures,  such  as  in  New Jersey,  have  adopted  a more
      aggressive approach toward making industry pay for environmental programs.

                  PUBLIC AWARENESS OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS


Public  knowledge  and  concern  about  environmental  problems  Induces  State
legislatures to adopt AFMs.

•     Legislative decisions to adopt fees are often affected by public awareness
      of environmental problems.  In one SCate,  an underground storage tank leak
      in a  key  legislator's  district  galvanized  support for  legislation  to
      require tank registration fees.

Public awareness helps neutralize industry opposition to fees and taxes

•     Affected  industries  are more likely to  cooperate  with proposed  fee
      legislation  if  there is strong public support  for  it. In  Florida,  for
      example, petroleum companies have not opposed excise taxes  for underground
      storage tank clean-ups because groundwater protection has strong support
      in the State.
                                 FUNDING BASE

Some States don't need alternative funding sources since they spend little beyond
the Federal program and match

•     In one of the States included in the study, 90 percent of its water program
      is funded by Federal grants and use of AFMs is limited.  With reductions
      in Federal funding expected, however, this State is beginning to explore
      the use of AFMs.

Some States have a small universe of sources that can be assessed

•     One of the States has relatively few  stationary sources of air pollution;
      in addition, most of  the  sources  are small  businesses.   The State's air
      program manager believes these sources would be unable  (and unwilling) to
      pay fees high enough to cover a substantial part of the program's costs.

     V. SUCCESSFUL APPROACHES TO ESTABLISHING OR
                         IMPLEMENTING  AFMs


ESTABLISHING AFMs

States are most llkelv to  succeed in getting legislative authority to charge fees
If their proposals  are adequately  justified

•     Legislatures  are more likely to approve  fees when a program can show that
      the fees are based on the true cost of issuing a permit or conducting other
      activities (than if the proposed fee structure seems  arbitrary).

•     Since legislatures  may be  concerned that  fees can be   inequitable,  some
      States have  used a rating factor  or formula which  incorporates equity
      considerations (e.g., fees based on the  size of the facility.).

•     Program Managers whose fee proposals were accompanied by good documentation
      (e.g., justification of fee levels,  realistic revenue projections) believe
      that this  documentation helped them to persuade their legislatures to adopt
      their  proposals.

States use a number of methods to enlist the support (or deter active opposition)
from industry.

•     One State offered some flexibility on the frequency of permit reissuance
      in return for an industry  commitment not to oppose fees.

•     Oregon involves  industry  in  the  fee  development process  by allowing
      industry representatives  to  play an  active  role in determining the need
      for fees and fee levels.

•     In several cases, States have  told industry that they would be forced to
      give their programs back to EPA if they aren't able to generate additional
      revenue from fees.   This has  been particularly common  in the RCRA program.

•     Finally,  several State Program  Managers have argued that they will provide
      better service to  industry with the  increased funding  from  fees.  These
      Program Managers have convinced industry that they will be able to cut down
      on the time required to approve permits if they have additional resources.


IMPLEMENTING AFMs

Some States have reduced  administrative costs  by piggybacking on existing State
infrastructures.

•     Louisiana uses  the State's  computer system  to keep  records  for its new
      Title  III, Tier  II  fee program.  Other  State programs  take advantage of
       financial and accounting expertise  that exists  in other State programs.
       In  some cases,  collection and accounting operations  are performed by an
      office outside of the environmental program,  either by a special  division
      within the environmental  agency or by the State Department of Finance or
      Revenue.

                                      11

Cash flow problems can be avoided.

•     State programs have developed several ways Co avoid the cash flow problems
      that may  emerge  when programs are  funded  by fee  revenues.   Ohio's air
      program receives an up-front appropriation  from the legislature that is
      repaid from fee revenues.   Other State programs  (Louisiana's air program,
      for example) collect fee revenues during a limited period of time at the
      beginning of each  fiscal year.  Thi's  allows the program to avoid having
      fee revenues trickle in over the course of the year.

                                     12
VI.  BARRIERS TO ESTABLISHMENT  OR IMPLEMENTATION OF
                                   AFMs
Philosophical barriers  can block the establishment of AFMs.

•     A few  Program Managers  interviewed  for this study are  philosophically
      opposed to  funding environmental programs with AFMs.  One argued that the
      role of an environmental agency  is  to protect the environment, not  to
      collect revenue.   He  noted  "If I  wanted to  be  a tax collector,  I'd  work
      for the IRS."

•     Several Program Managers maintained that environmental programs should be
      funded from taxes paid by both citizens and  corporations.  They contended
      that it is unfair to single out industry for  user fees since environmental
      protection  benefits everyone.


Lack of legislative, political or  industry support is a barrier.

•     Legislative authority  must be obtained before AFMs  can be  put in place.
      This can take one or two years or longer.  Even  if authority is obtained,
      legislatures may impose unrealistic caps on fee levels, which make revenues
      too low to  be worthwhile.   Legislatures may also  oppose  dedicating  fees
      directly to environmental programs.

•     One common  reason legislators oppose  the use of AFMS  is the  fear that  they
      will drive  away  industry.   This  fear is often strongest  when  economic
      conditions  are poor.   However, the Project Team found little evidence  to
      substantiate  this concern.   One Program Manager  indicated that a  few
      "marginally profitable"  firms had gone out  of  business  due to inability
      to pay NPOES  permit fees; others  cited no such outcomes.

•     In many States,  it is difficult  to  impose  AFMs where  industry  strongly
      lobbies against  their use.    Several  Program Managers noted that strong
      interest groups  can block even nominal fees.


Some Program Managers have concerns about administrative problems involved  vith
implementation of AFMs.

•     Several Program Managers who have  limited  or  no experience with  AFMs
      expressed concern that administrative costs could exceed revenues.   This
      view was not shared by Program Managers who have experience  with AFMs,
      although some of them indicated  that  certain  accounting and collection
      activities  are not always cost-effective.  For example, in one State water
      program,  correcting  minor   accounting  discrepancies   has   taken   a
      disproportionate  amount of  staff time.   In addition,   several  Program
      Managers said   it  is  particularly  difficult  to  collect  from small
      facilities--and  that  the costs of collecting fees  from  such facilities
      sometimes exceed the  revenues collected.

-------
                                      13

•     Concern that there might be high start-up costs associated with AFMs was
      expressed by Program Managers  who have not used AFMs.  To some extent,
      this concern was  substantiated by Program Managers who have  experience
      with AFMs, several of whom said that  they  lacked  the  staff expertise to
      run fee programs at first.   In addition, they noted there  is a "learning
      curve" involved with running fee programs and that it takes some time to
      get such programs running efficiently.


Funding uncertainties can make Program Managers reluctant to depend upon AFMs.

•     Some Program Managers prefer to rely  on appropriations  because they are
      concerned that it may be difficult to predict the level of revenues from
      AFMs.   Fee or  tax revenues  may  vary  from year  to  year  depending on
      economic conditions and other factors.   Moreover,  the base  for an AFM may
      shrink over time.  In one State, for example, the water program is funded
      partially  by  a  tax  on cigarettes;    declining   cigarette  consumption
      obviously could affect revenues for the program.

•     Even when  the AFM base is  constant,  revenues may  not  be  available when
      needed.  Revenues may trickle in over  the course of the year if there are
      delays in billing or  in receipt of payments.  This  could result in program
      expenditures being delayed until enough revenues have accumulated.


There are limitations to reliance on AFM revenues.

•     One  drawback  to  reliance  on  fee revenues is  limited  flexibility in
      allocating revenues among  different program activities.   In some cases,
      fee revenues are dedicated  to specific activities  and may not be spent on
      other parts of a program.

•     Another  concern  related to heavy reliance on AFMs is  that if regulated
      industries pay a  substantial part of  program costs,  they  would begin to
      assert increasing influence in environmental policy decision-making.  One
      State  official  noted  that  industry  is beginning to  feel  a  sense of
      "ownership" of the State's environmental programs.

-------
VII. POSSIBLE EPA ROLES  IN SUPPORTING STATE  PROGRAMS
EPA should be consistent in its message to States about federal  funding  trends
and the need to develop AFMs.

•     Although it is difficult to predict future Federal funding levels, EPA
      could  try  to  keep States  better informed about the expected levels of
      Federal support.   State officials recalled that,  in the past, EPA at times
      has  warned States about deep  cuts  in Federal  support--reductions far
      greater than those Congress ultimately made.  State Program Managers say
      this makes it  appear  that they are  simply  "crying wolf" when they talk co
      elected officials about imminent cuts in Federal support and that this
      makes  it more  difficult  to convince State legislatures to  adopt  AFMs.

•     Similarly, if EPA'wants States  to become more  self-supporting  in  their
      environmental  programs,  this should be communicated clearly to Governors
      and State legislators.  This view was  recently supported by the  State and
      Territorial Air Pollution Program Administrators  (STAPPA),  which voted to
      ask EPA to push  States to  adopt  permit fees in their air programs.


EPA  can increase technical assistance to States to  help them  put AFMs into
place.

•     The Agency could provide assistance  in designing and  setting up   fiscal
      management and administrative  systems and in designing fee structures.

•     The  Agency could  encourage States to  share information and  experience.
      either through conferences or  other means.


EPA could gather and disseminate information on State experiences with AFMs

•     EPA  could  serve as an information  clearinghouse  on State  AFM activities
      or provide  support  to a clearinghouse operated by one of the  national
      associations of  State officials.
