Revenues will result from an increase of $15 in tax filing fees on an estimated 700 cases in FY 1990.\n\n10 Department of Revenue Administration: Increases state revenues by $33,000 annually from a $30 non-refundable fee for a letter of certification for corporations wishing to dissolve.\n\n13 Department of Environmental Services: Increases state revenues by $200,000 in FY 1990, by $210,000 in FY 1991, by $220,500 in FY 1992 and by $250,000 in FY 1993. State expenditures will increase by $100,000 in FY 1990, by $105,000 in FY 1991, by $110,250 in FY 1992 and by $125,000 in FY 1993.\n\nCounty expenditures will increase by $5,000 in FY 1990, by $5,250 in FY 1991, by $5,512 in FY 1992 and by $5,788 in FY 1993. Local expenditures will increase by $60,000 in FY 1990, by $63,000 in FY 1991, by $66,150 in FY 1992 and by $69,457 in FY 1993. There will be no impact on county or local revenues.\n\nThe Department calculates the increase to state revenues by multiplying FY 1988 revenues by $200,000 times the 80% increase in fees charged. State expenditures represent 50% of revenues, which are deposited to the equipment fund. County and local expenditures represent current lab work performed for them by the state.\n\n14-15 Division of Public Health Services: Increases state revenues by $200,000 in FY 1990 and by $335,000 in FY 1991 from food service licensure fees. There will be no impact on state expenditures or county or local revenues or expenditures.\n\nThe Division estimates there are 3,950 food service establishments licensed by the state (excluding 300 private and public schools with hot lunch facilities). At an average fee of $85 per establishment, revenue raised would be $335,750. The Division assumes a smaller amount of revenue in FY 1990 ($200,000) because it will have to publish rules and will not be able to begin collecting fees on July 1, 1989.\n\n16-21 Department of Environmental Services: Increases state revenues by $1,342,300 in FY 1990 and FY 1991. State expenditures will increase by $10,000 in FY 1990 and by $5,000 in FY 1991 for sewer system plans review. Local expenditures will increase by $2,750 in FY 1990 and FY 1991 for the public water systems and subsurface waste increases.\n\n22 Division of Public Health Services: Increases state revenues by $269,068 in FY 1990 and $276,206 in FY 1991 from raising administrative fees charged to hospitals and nursing homes. Such fees were previously capped at $400,000 per year. They will now be capped at 125% of the amount budget for health services planning and review. The amount of new revenue equals 125% of the budgeted amounts for health services planning review (125% x $535,254 in FY 1990 and 125% x $540,965 in FY 1991) less the previous cap of $400,000 per year.\n\n23-26 Labor Department: Increases revenues through certificates, inspection licenses, inspections and blue print fees by $176,070 in FY 1990, by $176,250 in FY 1991, by $192,070 in FY 1992 and by $191,900 in FY 1993.\n\n27-58 Liquor Commission: Increases state revenues by $930,380 in FY 1990 and each year thereafter. The Commission multiplied the FY 1989 total estimated sales from beverage fees, licenses and other fees times the proposed increases. The Commission assumes all fees and permits will remain constant for the fiscal period 1990-93.\n\n59-60 Department of Education: This section will have no fiscal impact on state, county or local revenues or expenditures. The appropriation for the provisions of this section is included in HB 200.\n\n61-62 Administrative Office of the Courts: Increases state revenues by $468,562 in FY 1990, by $590,389 in FY 1991, by $619,908 in FY 1992 and by $650,904 in FY 1993. It multiplied estimated 1990 fines of $18,742,500 times the 3% penalty assessment times 10/12 (September 1989 effective date). The Office assumes fine revenues will increase by 5% each year.\n\n65-66 Pari-Mutuel Commission: Decreases state expenditures by $400,782 in FY 1990 and by $401,781 in FY 1991 for lab fees. The Commission assumes a 1.6% increase in operating costs for FY 1992 and that this cost will remain constant in FY 1993.\n\n67 Secretary of State: Increases state revenues by $12,000 in FY 1990 and $13,500 in FY 1991 from a $15 increase in filing non-profit articles of agreement.\n\n68 Secretary of State: Increases state revenues by $50,000 in FY 1990 and $25,000 in FY 1991 from a $15 increase in filing nonprofit return fees (charter renewals).\n\n69 Secretary of State: Increases state revenues by $480,000 in FY 1990 and $488,000 in FY 1991 from a $15 increase in fees for filing an annual report of a domestic or foreign corporation.\n\n70 Secretary of State: Increases state revenues by $425,000 in FY 1990 and $445,000 in FY 1991 from a $15 increase in N.H. corporation license fees.\n\n71-72 Secretary of State: Increases state revenues by $400,000 in FY 1990 and $425,000 in FY 1991 from a $50 increase in license and franchise fees for foreign corporations.\n\n73 Secretary of State: Increases state revenues by $30,000 each in FY 1990 and FY 1991 from a $10 increase in late filing penalty fees for annual reports.\n\n74 Secretary of State: Increases state revenues by $86,000 in FY 1990 and $93,000 in FY 1991 from a $10 increase in the trade name license fee.\n\n75-76 State Treasurer: Increases state revenues by $966,000 in FY 1990 and $397,000 in FY 1991 due to the clarification of procedures for out-of-state holdings. There will also be a decrease in general fund expenditures of $154,000 in FY 1990 and $67,000 in FY 1991 for items which can be charged to the abandoned property fund under this bill.\n\n77-79 Department of Environmental Services: Increases state revenues by $287,000 in FY 1990 and by $299,700 in FY 1991. State expenditures will increase by $7,500 in FY 1990 and by $4,000 in FY 1991 for administration. Local expenditures will increase by $13,900 in FY 1990 and FY 1991, resulting from increased fees.\n\n80 Board of Tax and Land Appeals: Increases state revenues by $11,250 annually from a $50 increase
