disposal or incineration of solid waste that is:
(1) generated outside Indiana; and

If rules are adopted under this subsection, the fee shall be set at an

the solid waste into Indiana and the presence of the solid waste in
Indiana.

total amount of the fee paid shall be credited against any other fee to
which the solid waste may later be subject under this section.
(d) A fee may not be imposed upon material used as alternate daily
cover pursuant to a permit issued by the department under 329 IAC
