What the document says
“Not later than 15 days after the date on which the Council receives information described in paragraph (1) from a project sponsor, the Council shall provide to the project sponsor notice of the amount of the fee to be paid under this section”
The section requires the Council to tell the project sponsor the amount of the fee within 15 days of receiving the sponsor's information, and lets the sponsor pay the fee after receiving that notice.
What the document actually says
“Not later than 15 days after the date on which the Council receives information described in paragraph (1) from a project sponsor, the Council shall provide to the project sponsor notice of the amount of the fee to be paid under this section”
That sentence, in plain words
The council must write back within 15 days. It must say how much the fee will be.
What this is about
The clock starts when the sponsor's papers arrive. The sponsor may then pay. Paying is a choice, not a duty.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, checked against the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
