			 The adjustment shall be determined by calculating the percentage change between
			 the base price per gallon of marine diesel fuel of three dollars and four cents

			 quarter and applying the percentage change to the base pilot boat fuel
			 surcharge.

				Rotation Administrator shall notify and obtain permission from the commissioner
				for the newly calculated pilot boat fuel surcharge.

			 less than 25 nautical miles in Long Island Sound, which will be charged at
			 two-thirds the harbor shift fee established in this subsection. The harbor
			 shift fee is in addition to the docking and undocking fee as set forth in

			 an authorized pilot transfer station to shore, for the purposes of boarding or
			 disembarking a Connecticut state licensed marine pilot shall be paid into a
			 pilot training and safety equipment account by the vessel and held in escrow by
			 the Joint Rotation Administrator. Connecticut state licensed marine pilots
			 operating within the waters, as defined in Section
			 15-15a-6(m)
			 of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies, can draw upon the account to
			 fund the procurement of personal safety equipment and continuous training
			 courses and programs.
