7-16A-5.1. Manifest or bill of lading required when transporting special fuels.

Every person transporting special fuels from a refinery or other facility at which special fuel is produced, refined, manufactured, blended or compounded or from a pipeline terminal in this state, importing special fuels into this state or exporting special fuels from this state, other than by pipeline or in the fuel supply tanks of motor vehicles, shall carry a manifest or bill of lading in form and content as prescribed by or acceptable to the department. The manifest or bill of lading shall be signed by the consignor and by every person accepting the special fuel or any part of it, with a notation as to the amount accepted. If a manifest or bill of lading is not required to be carried by the terms of this section, any person transporting special fuels without such a manifest or bill of lading shall, upon demand, furnish proof acceptable to the department that the special fuels so transported were legally acquired by a registered supplier who assumed liability for payment of the tax imposed by the Special Fuels Supplier Tax Act.
