    (~IN~uRULE)
    DISSENTING OPINION
    ~
    i.
    U,
    Dumelle;:
    My
    reasons
    for dis’a~Lingin this proceeding are
    largely
    those outlined
    in my C ~se~ting Opinion of
    February
    29,
    1984
    in R84—1
    which
    was
    ~
    ~n~rgency
    Rule
    of identical
    language.
    The rule is much
    :~~tai1ed,
    has largely
    unsupported
    criteria,
    sets
    a
    peer
    ~
    ~
    e’~rjt
    for all future permit fee
    determinations
    (~at~,c~
    ~‘j
    and
    misses
    the
    intent
    of
    the
    statute,
    The st3tu
    “~
    .‘t:
    set
    the
    fees
    “to adequately
    cover
    all costs to the Ste~.
    (emphasis added).
    The Land Po1lu~
    ‘ontxol Division is presently funded
    with 75
    Federal money ~ci 25
    State
    funds.
    The proposed
    rule
    in R84~7would levy 100
    State funds or three times
    beyond
    actual £~:~ntcosts.
    An argument can be made that P,A, 83~938is unconstitu-
    tional
    to the extent t~at
    it
    makes IEPA~swaste inspectional
    functions the creature cc thi~B~ard~sa’tion on permit
    fees,
    That
    would be an tr~as
    u of the appropriation process
    reserved
    to the General
    Asseribly
    The
    provision for ~billable inspections”
    certainly
    makes
    this
    argument
    plausible’ namely that the fees are
    tied
    to
    actual
    TEPA work performed.
    For
    these reasons,
    I dissen~
