142.839. Supplier's blanket election to treat all removals as removals across the rack from a terminal in this state — notice — director's list of electing suppliers — precollection of tax by supplier. — 1. Any licensed supplier or licensed permissive supplier may make a blanket election with the director to treat all removals from all of its out-of-state terminals with a destination in this state as shown on the terminal-issued shipping paper as if the removals were removed across the rack by the supplier from a terminal in this state for all purposes.

2. The election provided by this section shall be made by filing a "notice of election" with the director.

3. The director shall publish a list of electing suppliers pursuant to this section.

4. The absence of an election by a supplier in accordance with this section shall in no way relieve the supplier of responsibility for remitting the tax imposed by this chapter upon the removal from an out-of-state terminal for import into this state by the supplier.

5. Any supplier which makes the election provided by this section shall precollect the tax imposed by this chapter on all removals from a qualified terminal on its account as a position holder, or as a person receiving fuel from a position holder pursuant to a terminal bulk transfer without regard to the license status of the person acquiring the fuel from the supplier, the point or terms of sale, or the character of delivery.

6. Each supplier who elects to precollect tax pursuant to this chapter agrees to waive any defense that the state lacks jurisdiction to require collection on all out-of-state sales by such person as to which the person had knowledge that the shipments were destined for this state and that this state imposes the requirement pursuant to this subsection under its general police powers to regulate the movement of motor fuels.

7. Each supplier who elects to precollect tax pursuant to this chapter shall not be subject to any civil penalties or interest imposed pursuant to this chapter for any corrections resulting from a diversion of the motor fuel from the original destination as represented by the purchaser or the agent of the purchaser. However, the supplier and exporter in accordance with this subsection may, by mutual agreement, permit the supplier to assume the liability of the exporter and adjust the taxes of the exporter payable to the supplier.
