The registration modification fee amount shall be determined by the registrant from the Fee Schedule D and be approved by the Director or his designee. Payment of the appropriate modification fee shall be due with submittal of the request to modify the existing NOR filed with the Department. A modification fee is required if there is:

(b) A change in operational control of the facility; or
(c) Any increase in the number of animal units at any time which is sufficient to place the facility in a higher fee category.
(d) Significant change in waste treatment, handling or disposal.

(4) The registrant shall comply with all applicable fee requirements for the operation of this facility, as specified in Chapter 335-1-6. Failure to promptly remit all required fees, certifications, or other information required by the Director shall be grounds for the Director to initiate enforcement action and/or terminate Registration under this Chapter.
(5) Any AFO that is not defined by Rule as a CAFO or is not designated as a CAFO by the Director that wishes to be registered shall pay the applicable fee according to Chapter 335-1-6.
