Summary
This measure amends the deductions allowed for purposes of the “special fuels excise tax” so that a deduction is allowed for biodiesel that is “received or manufactured and delivered to a rack operator in New Mexico for blending or resale.” The bill also amends the definition of “special fuel” for purposes of the Special Fuels Supplier Tax Act, which imposes the special fuels excise tax, to define “biodiesel” and “blended biodiesel.” It defines “biodiesel” as “a renewable, biodegradable, combustible liquid fuel that is derived from agricultural plant oils or animal fats” and that meets certain international standards. It defines “blended biodiesel” as “a diesel engine fuel that contains at least two percent biodiesel.”
The bill also limits the current special fuels excise tax deduction for fuel that is at least 99% vegetable oil or animal fat to such fuel that is received in New Mexico prior to July 1, 2014.
