this part to the Radiological Emergency

Preparedness Fund as offsetting

collections, which will be available for

our REP Program. The Department of

the Treasury revisions to section

8025.30 of publication I–TFM 6–8000

require Federal agencies to collect funds

by electronic funds transfer when such

collection is cost-effective, practicable,

and consistent with current statutory

authority. Working with the Department

of the Treasury we now provide for

payment of bills by electronic transfers

through Automated Clearing House

(ACH) credit payments.

(b) We will send bills that are based

on the assessment methodology set out

in § 354.4 to licensees to recover the full

amount of the funds that we budget to

provide REP Program services.

Licensees that have more than one site

will receive consolidated bills. We will

forward one bill to each licensee during

the first quarter of the fiscal year, with

payment due within 30 days. If we

exceed our original budget for the fiscal

year and need to make minor

adjustments, the adjustment will appear

in the bill for the next fiscal year.

§ 354.7 Failure to pay.

Where a licensee fails to pay a

prescribed fee required under this part,

we will implement procedures under 44

CFR part 11, subpart C, to collect the

fees under the Debt Collection Act of

1982 (31 U.S.C. 3711 et seq.).

Dated: June 8, 2001.
