# §514.14. What happens if the fees imposed exceed the statutory maximum or if the Commission does not expend the full amount of fees collected in a fiscal year?

- (a) The total amount of all fees imposed during any fiscal year shall not exceed the statutory maximum imposed by Congress. The Commission shall credit pro-rata any fees collected in excess of this amount against amounts otherwise due.
- (b) To the extent that revenue derived from fees imposed under the rates of fees established under [§ 514.2](/cfr/25/514.2.md) are not expended or committed at the close of any fiscal year, such funds shall remain available until expended to defray the costs of operations of the Commission.
