DYED FUEL -- Amends and repeals existing law to remove references to dyed fuel.
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
The purpose of this legislation is to amend Idaho Code Section 63 and various subsections therein to remove the dyed fuels exemption from the motor fuel tax. This proposal does away with dyed diesel fuel and keeps one diesel fuel (clear) in the marketplace for all users. There is a system in place for off road users of diesel fuel to apply for a refund as frequently as monthly and no longer than annually. There is also a system in place for State and local units of government to purchase fuel without paying the state and federal taxes. Amending Idaho Code Section 63 will eliminate the necessity for dyed diesel, which will also eliminate the enforcement issue experienced since the exemption was added.
