What’s in it
AI summary Gas station owners must report how many gallons of gasoline and diesel they sell to stay eligible for certain tax credits. If a dealer fails to turn in these reports on time, they cannot claim credits for biofuels like E-15 or biodiesel. This loss of credits lasts until the missing reports are finally filed.2
Read the official explanation
This bill relates to reporting total gasoline and diesel fuel gallonage sold or dispensed by retail dealers for a determination period.11Y (E-15 plus gasoline promotion). The retail dealer who fails to timely file such a report for the latest determination period ending prior to the close of the retail dealer’s tax year is ineligible to claim the tax credits for the tax year or any succeeding tax years until the report is filed. The report filed by retail dealers is used to calculate the rate of excise taxes on ethanol blended gasoline classified as E-15 or higher and biodiesel blended fuel classified as B-20 or higher.
Why it matters. Retail fuel dealers who fail to report the total amount of gasoline and diesel fuel they sell on time will lose their eligibility to claim certain tax credits for their current and future tax years. These reports are used by the state to determine the excise tax rates for E-15 or higher ethanol blended gasoline and B-20 or higher biodiesel blended fuel.3
