Amends and adds to existing law to establish provisions regarding waste tire recycling.

This legislation amends the Idaho Waste Tire Disposal Act. It provides for the establishment of a new waste tire recycling fee of $1.00 for each tire commercially sold in the state. The legislation also provides for the establishment of a new waste tire recycling fund. Fees collected from the sale of new tires are collected and deposited into the fund by the Idaho State Tax Commission. The fund is to be administered by the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality for two purposes: (1) to clean up abandoned waste tire piles located in various locations throughout the state; and, (2) to provide for partial reimbursement for the costs of transporting, processing and recycling waste tires generated within the state. Monies in the fund may only be expended subject to legislative appropriation. The fee has a five-year sunset clause.
