(n) (2) The five-year plan may include provisions for
the establishment and implementation of a regional system of
service fees to be charged at public waste disposal
facilities within the participating jurisdictions. The
Authority, by agreement with a subdivision or person outside
the boundaries of the service region, may establish various
service fees for the disposal of waste generated within the
service region consistent with the 5-year plan. The
Secretary of Health and Mental Hygiene shall supervise any
pricing structure proposed for adoption in the five-year
plan or subsequent amendments thereto, for reasonableness
and consistency with county solid waste plans pursuant to
[Article 43, § 387C, as amended] TITLE 9 OF THE HEALTH -
ENVIRONMENTAL ARTICLE.

unless:

(2) The project is consistent with any plan
which has been adopted by the subdivision in which the
project is to be located and which has been approved by the
Department of Health and Mental Hygiene pursuant to [§ 387C
of Article 43 of this Code, as such section may be amended
from time to time] TITLE 9 OF THE HEALTH - ENVIRONMENTAL
ARTICLE.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this title, the
Secretary may grant certificates to any properly accredited
person of known scientific attainment, permitting him to
collect fish, fish eggs, crustaceans, or mollusks for
scientific purposes only. To obtain a certificate the
applicant shall submit proof of necessity and pay a $25 fee
to the Department. The fee shall be deposited to the credit
of the State Fisheries Management and Protection Fund. The
certificate expires December 31 of the issuing year. On
proof that the holder of the certificate has captured or
killed any fish, fish eggs, crustaceans, or mollusks for
other than scientific purposes, the certificate is void.

Nothing contained within this subtitle shall preempt,
restrict or supersede the authority of the Secretary of
Health AND MENTAL HYGIENE as provided by law.
