      s 192. Fees for Preparation of Negative Declaration or EIR.

      (a) The board may charge and collect a reasonable fee from an applicant 
      proposing a project for which the board must prepare an environmental 
      impact report (EIR) or initial study and negative declaration. The fee 
      will be an amount which will cover the costs incurred by the board or the 
      department in preparing such EIR or initial study or negative declaration, 
      and for procedures necessary to comply with CEQA.

      (b) Where the board will charge a fee for the preparation of an EIR or 
      initial study and negative declaration, it shall collect a deposit as 
      provided in Section 503 of this title which is incorporated by reference.

      (c) The board shall separately account for the deposit collected and the 
      charges thereto. The status of the account shall be provided to the 
      project proponent at regular periodic intervals established by mutual 
      agreement. A final accounting shall be rendered by the board after the 
      final EIR or negative declaration is considered and adopted or when the 
      environmental review is otherwise terminated.

      (d) If the final accounting shows that the deposit exceeds the actual 
      costs incurred by the board, the excess shall be refunded. If the actual 
      costs exceed the amount of the deposit, the project proponent shall be 
      billed and pay the difference.

      (e) The board may adjust or waive deposits or fees for minor projects.
