Subchapter D. FEE SCHEDULES
13 TAC §6.121

repeal of §6.121, concerning fees for micrographics services provided
by the Commission without change to the proposal published in the June 29,

Texas Register
(26 TexReg 4818).
The repeal will permit the Commission to adopt new rules relating to establishing

to respond in a more timely manner to changes in the costs of providing the
services, thus fulfilling the intent of state law that all costs are recovered.
No comments were received regarding the proposed repeal.
The repeal is adopted under the Government Code, §441.168,
which requires the Commission to establish fees to recover the costs of its
micrographics services.

13 TAC §6.121
The Texas State Library and Archives Commission adopts new §6.121,
concerning the development and approval of a fee schedule for the recovery
of its costs in providing micrographics services with changes to the proposed
text as published in the June 29, 2001
Texas Register
(26 TexReg 4818). The deadline for submission of a proposed fee schedule
to the Commission in subsection (a) of the section is changed from June 30
to July 31. The revised date more closely coincides with the Commission's
customary meeting schedule.
State law requires that the Commission establish fees to recover the costs
of its micrographics services, but state law does not require that the fees
be adopted as administrative rules of the Commission. The new section will
replace current §6.121, which the agency is repealing in a separate action.
In contrast to the repealed section, which contains a detailed fee schedule,
the new section establishes a procedure for the establishment and approval
of a fee schedule each fiscal year by the Commission. Under this process the
Commission can respond in a more timely and frequent manner to changes in
the costs of providing micrographics services, thus fulfilling the intent
of state law that all such costs are recovered.
No comments were received regarding the adoption of the section.
The new section is adopted under the Government Code, §441.168,
which requires the Commission to establish fees to recover the cost of its
micrographics services.
§6.121.Micrographics Services Fee Schedule.
(a)
No later than July 31 of each fiscal year, the state records
administrator, as defined by the Government Code, §441.180, shall present
to the Commission for approval a schedule of proposed fees to recover the
costs of providing micrographics services to state agencies and local governments
during the following fiscal year.
(b)
The schedule of proposed fees presented to the Commission
under subsection (a) of this section must be sufficient to recover all direct
and indirect costs of providing the services and shall also include costs
for expanding micrographics services offered to local governments by the Commission
as provided by the Government Code, §441.168.
(c)
The state records administrator shall monitor the costs
of providing micrographics services and present to the Commission for approval
any needed amendments to fees to cover changes in costs during a fiscal year.
This agency hereby certifies that the adoption has been reviewed
by legal counsel and found to be a valid exercise of the agency's legal authority.

the Secretary of State on July 31, 2001.
