Requires permittees to: (1) deposit 75 percent of such fees in a trust account for subsequent use on projects to eliminate ocean dumping after 1991; and (2) pay 25 percent of such fees to the Administrator for sludge disposal enforcement, research, reporting, and permit activities. Authorizes the Administrator to waive all or part of the fee requirement for permittees who have entered into and are adhering to a binding, enforceable agreement for the phasing out and termination of the ocean dumping of municipal sludge by 1992. Directs the Administrator to report to the Congress at six-month intervals on land-based disposal options for municipal sludge and the progress made by permittees toward the cessation of ocean dumping of such sludge.
