Canonical, always-current version: https://referencesource.org/hazardous-waste-generator-fees-by-state/ Machine-readable: https://referencesource.org/hazardous-waste-generator-fees-by-state/data.json — this mirror is a point-in-time copy.

State-by-state annual registration and compliance fees for hazardous waste generators. Each record is one state’s fee for one generator category (VSQG, SQG, LQG, transporter, TSD facility), with the dollar amount, the fee basis (flat annual, per-ton, revenue-based), the due date, and the legal citation. Answers 'what is the annual hazardous waste fee for an SQG in [state]', 'which states charge VSQGs', 'what are the hazardous waste fees in North Carolina vs Vermont'. Fees range from $75 (Vermont VSQG) to $3,880+ (Massachusetts SQG) — a 50× range across states for equivalent generator categories.
Provenance — what every record carries
Every record carries source (the URL the value was read from) and
source_quote (a verbatim quote from that page stating it). A value you
cannot check against its page is indistinguishable from an invented one;
these can all be checked. Each record is also individually addressable on
the canonical site at its url.
Licence position
unknown
Facts are not copyrightable; what this dataset takes from each source is a fact plus a short attributed quote linking back to the page that states it.
