The petitioner shall make a deposit of $50 with each petition to pay for the expenses of publication, mailing, and posting of notices, and for the expenses of hiring a hearing site, if a hearing outside of Concord is necessary. If these expenses are more than $50, the department shall require the petitioner to pay the additional expenses before it sends its recommendations to the governor and council with regard to the petition.
