Reconciliation of fees for calendar year
 8. (1) In this section, “tire class” means, in respect of a calendar year, a class of tire set out in the OTS Tire Classification in respect of that year. (2) The amount of a fee that must be paid in respect of each calendar year before 2017 by a steward shall be determined by applying the method set out in this section. O. Reg. 390/16, s. 8 (2); O. Reg. 214/17, s. 4. (3) Ontario Tire Stewardship shall, (a)  determine the cost attributable to each tire class in respect of the calendar year by, (i)  determining the sum of the amounts described in paragraph 1 of subsection 33 (5) of the Act that were incurred in relation to used tires during the calendar year, and (ii)  attributing a portion of that sum to each tire class; (b)  determine the cost attributable to a tire in each tire class in respect of the calendar year by, (i)  assigning each tire supplied by stewards during the calendar year to a tire class if the tire meets the criteria of the tire class, and (ii)  dividing the cost attributable to a tire class, as determined under clause (a), by the number of tires assigned to that tire class under subclause (i); and (c)  determine the amount of the fee required to be paid by a steward in respect of a calendar year by, (i)  assigning each tire supplied by the steward during the calendar year to a tire class in respect of the calendar year if the tire meets the criteria of the tire class, (ii)  multiplying the cost attributable to a tire in each tire class, as determined under clause (b), by the number of tires assigned to the tire class under subclause (i), (iii)  determining the sum of all amounts determined under subclause (ii), (iv)  determining the amount of fees required to be paid under section 6 in respect of the calendar year and any other fees that were required to be paid by the steward under the Act in respect of used tires and in respect of the calendar year, and (v)  subtracting the amount determined under subclause (iv) from the sum determined under subclause (iii), in order to arrive at the amount of the fee required to be paid under this section by the steward in respect of the calendar year. (4) If the amount arrived at under subclause (3) (c) (v) is less than zero, that amount is owed to the steward by Ontario Tire Stewardship and no fee is required to be paid by the steward under this section. (5) Ontario Tire Stewardship shall, no later than May 1 in the year following the calendar year in respect of which the fee is required to be paid, provide written notice of the following to the steward: 1.  The cost attributable to each tire class under clause (3) (a). 2.  The number of tires supplied by the steward that were assigned to each tire class under subclause (3) (c) (i). 3.  The amount required to be paid by the steward in respect of each tire class, as determined under subclause (3) (c) (ii). 4.  The sum determined under subclause (3) (c) (iii). 5.  The portion of the amount of fees determined under subclause (3) (c) (iv) that was required to be paid by the steward in respect of each tire class. 6.  The amount of the fee required to be paid under this section by the steward in respect of the calendar year, as arrived at under subclause (3) (c) (v). 7.  If the amount set out under paragraph 6 is greater than zero, the date on or before which that amount is required to be paid by the steward. 8.  If the amount set out under paragraph 6 is less than zero, the date on or before which that amount is required to be credited or paid to the steward and a statement that no fee is required to be paid by the steward under this section. (6) A fee required to be paid by a steward in respect of a calendar year, as determined under clause (3) (c), shall be paid no later than June 30 in the year following the calendar year in respect of which the fee is required to be paid. (7) If an amount is owed to a steward under subsection (4), Ontario Tire Stewardship shall, (a)  subject to clause (b), (i)  apply the amount as a credit against fees payable by the steward under the Act in respect of used tires no later than June 15 in the year that is two years following the calendar year in respect of which the amount was determined, and (ii)  pay any amount not applied as a credit under subclause (i) to the steward no later than June 30 in the year that is two years following the calendar year in respect of which the amount was determined; and (b)  if the steward ceases to be designated as a steward at any time before June 30 in the year that is two years following the calendar year in respect of which the amount was determined, pay the amount to the former steward before the earlier of, (i)  the day that is 90 days after the day the steward ceased to be designated, and (ii)  June 30 in the year that is two years following the calendar year in respect of which the amount was determined.
