To meet the expense of such inspection, the operator shall pay to the City of Anaheim an annual inspection fee as specified in subsection .050 of this section. The year for which each fee is applicable runs from July 1st to June 30th. The fees shall be based upon the total number of wells existing (whether producing or not) on July 1st.
