Agricultural Chemical Cleanup Program Surcharge Holiday Continues

Saturday, May 22nd, 2021 -- 8:25 AM

(Wisconsin Ag Connection) -A fee holiday for pesticide and fertilizer licensees for farmers purchasing fertilizer will continue into 2022.

That's according to the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, which confirmed that state fertilizer dealers will omit the ACCP surcharge from their customers' bills for a fourth year in a row. The announcement means pesticide and fertilizer businesses, commercial pesticide applicators, and pesticide manufacturers will not have to pay the fee. The ACCP surcharge goes into the Agricultural Chemical Cleanup Program fund to help pay for the costs of cleaning up spills.

The fee holiday will extend through June 2022 for fertilizer sales, and through the 2021-22 license year for other permits. The surcharge is based on the level of the ACCP fund on May 1 of each year. When the fund remains above $1.5 million, the department does not levy the surcharge.
