A. To fund the activities of the Oklahoma Energy Resources Board, an assessment shall be levied in the amount of one-tenth of one percent (1/10 of 1%) of the gross revenues received at the wellhead for oil, natural gas, casinghead gas or condensate produced from each well in the State of Oklahoma except for production exempt from the payment of gross production tax pursuant to Section 1001 of Title 68 of the Oklahoma Statutes.
B. The assessment levied by subsection A of this section shall be deducted from the proceeds of production by the person remitting gross production tax to the Oklahoma Tax Commission pursuant to Section 1001 of Title 68 of the Oklahoma Statutes. Such assessment shall be remitted to the Oklahoma Tax Commission in the same manner as is provided by law for the payment of gross production tax. Provided, the person remitting the assessment may remit cumulative amounts of Twenty-five Dollars ($25.00) or less quarterly. To defray the costs of receiving and depositing the assessments levied by this section, the Oklahoma Tax Commission shall retain Two Thousand Dollars ($2,000.00) per month of the assessments received for deposit in the Oklahoma Tax Commission Revolving Fund created pursuant to Section 113 of Title 68 of the Oklahoma Statutes. The remaining monies received by the Oklahoma Tax Commission pursuant to this section shall be deposited in the Energy Resources Revolving Fund.
C. The Board shall be responsible for taking appropriate legal actions to collect any assessment which is not paid or is not properly paid. The Oklahoma Tax Commission shall not be responsible for collecting any assessment not remitted to the Oklahoma Tax Commission for deposit in the Energy Resources Revolving Fund. The Oklahoma Tax Commission shall report to the Board any information it obtains regarding failure of any person to properly pay the assessment due, including any documentation it may have of such failure.
