(a) Every person required by law to secure a license under this chapter shall keep records in the time and manner and subject to inspection and audit as required by the Arkansas Tax Procedure Act, § 26-18-101 et seq., including a complete record of all alternative fuels taxable under this chapter and sold, delivered, or used by the person, showing for each purchase, receipt, sale, delivery, or use:

(3) An accurate record of the number of gallons equivalent of alternative fuels sold or used for taxable purposes with quantities measured by a meter.

(b) (1) For each delivery of alternative fuels directly into the fuel supply tank of a motor vehicle, the required record shall include a serially-numbered invoice issued in not less than triplicate counterparts on which shall be printed or stamped with a rubber stamp the name and address of the alternative fuels supplier making such delivery and on which shall be shown, in spaces to be provided on that invoice, the:

(A) Date of delivery;

(B) Number of equivalent gallons and kind of alternative fuels so delivered;

(C) Total mileage recorded on the odometer or hub meter of the motor vehicle into which delivered; and

(D) Motor vehicle registration number of the motor vehicle, or the interstate user, or IFTA carrier user's license number, if applicable.

(2) The invoice shall reflect that the tax has been paid or accounted for on each of the products delivered.

(3)

(A) One (1) counterpart of the invoice required by this subsection shall be kept by the alternative fuels supplier making such delivery as a part of his or her record and for the period of time and purposes provided in this chapter.

(B) Another counterpart shall be delivered to the operator of the motor vehicle and carried in the cab compartment of the motor vehicle for inspection by the Director of the Department of Finance and Administration or his or her representatives until the fuel it covers has been consumed.

(c)

(1) Every person who operates a motor vehicle that is equipped to use motor fuels taxable under the Motor Fuel Tax Law, § 26-55-201 et seq., or equipped to use distillate special fuels taxable under the Special Motor Fuels Tax Law, § 26-56-101 et seq., and alternative fuels interchangeably in the propulsion of the motor vehicle shall carry in the cab compartment of the motor vehicle for inspection by the director or his or her representative not only the counterpart of the serially-numbered invoice required under subsection (b) of this section for the delivery of alternative fuels into the fuel supply tanks of the motor vehicle but also an invoice or receipt from the seller for each delivery into the fuel supply tanks of the motor vehicle of motor fuels taxable under the Motor Fuel Tax Law, § 26-55-201 et seq., or of distillate special fuels taxable under the Special Motor Fuels Tax Law, § 26-56-101 et seq., which latter invoices or receipts shall show the same information as to date of delivery, quantity, odometer or hub meter mileage, and motor vehicle registration number as is required for the invoice covering alternative fuels.

(2) These invoices shall be carried with the motor vehicle until the types of fuels covered thereby have been consumed.

(d) The willful issuance of any invoice required by this chapter, bill of sale, or receipt which is false, untrue, or incorrect in any material particular, or the alteration or changing except for errors, or forging any such invoice, bill of sale, or receipt, or any duplicate of any such receipt pertaining to alternative fuels, shall constitute a violation of this chapter.

(e) All sales to users made pursuant to § 26-62-203 shall not require the carriage of an invoice by the user, provided that the director shall provide by regulation another means of providing an indication that the tax on the fuel being utilized to propel the motor vehicle will ultimately be paid by the user to the alternative fuels supplier, who is required to remit such tax to the director.
