§818.60. Marking requirements for gasoline or diesel fuel storage facilities; separate storage

A. All licensed distributors who are registered to have separate facilities for storing refund gasoline and which facilities are suitable to fuel motor vehicles using such fuels shall mark such storage facilities with the words "REFUND GASOLINE" in letters not less than five inches high. Suppliers are required to collect the tax levied hereunder; however, dyed gasoline can only be sold to purchasers who have registered with the secretary to purchase dyed gasoline to be used for refundable purposes, and such sales to end users must be evidenced by a special invoice as required by the secretary.

B. Any gasoline which is intended to be stored in separate facilities as provided in Subsection A of this Section must be indelibly dyed and chemically marked in accordance with regulations issued by the secretary.

C. All licensed distributors of diesel fuel who maintain their own storage tanks in this state are required to have a separate storage tank for taxable diesel fuel, which tanks are to be physically separate and apart from any other tanks or fueling units, and to indicate it by placing thereon or nearby in a conspicuous place the words "TAX-PAID FUELS" in letters not less than five inches high.

D. All licensed distributors who are registered to have separate facilities for storing dyed diesel fuel not intended for highway vehicle use and which facilities are suitable to fuel motor vehicles using such fuels shall mark such storage facilities with the words "DYED FUEL - NOT FOR MOTOR VEHICLE USE" in letters not less than five inches high. If such tanks are not provided, then all diesel fuel delivered into storage tanks suitable for fueling motor vehicles becomes taxable.

E. Any diesel fuel which is intended to be stored in separate facilities as provided in Subsection D of this Section must be indelibly dyed and chemically marked in accordance with regulations issued by the secretary of the Treasury of the United States under 26 USC 4082.

Acts 2005, No. 252, §1, eff. July 1, 2006.
