§ 105-449. 68. Restrictions on who can get a license as a distributor.

A bulk end-user of motor fuel may not be licensed as a distributor unless the bulk end-user also acquires motor fuel from a supplier or from another distributor for subsequent sale. This restriction does not apply to a bulk end-user that was licensed as a distributor on January 1, 1996. If a distributor license held by a bulk end-user on January 1, 1996, is subsequently revoked or cancelled, the bulk end-user is subject to the restriction set in this section. History (1995, c. 390, s. 3; 2000-173, s. 14(b); 2008-134, s. 27; 2017-204, s. 4.5(a).) Editor's Note. - Session Laws 2017-204, s. 4.9, provides in part: "The remainder of this part is effective when it becomes law [August 11, 2017] and applies to requests for review filed on or after that date and to requests for review pending on that date for which the Department reissues a request for additional information, allows the taxpayer time to respond by the requested response date, and provides notification to the taxpayer that failure to timely respond to the request will result in the request for review being subject to the provisions of G.S. 105-241.13 A." Session Laws 2017-204, s. 7.1, is a severability clause. Effect of Amendments. - Session Laws 2008-134, s. 27, effective January 1, 2009, substituted "bulk end-user" for "bulk-end user" throughout the section. Session Laws 2017-204, s. 4.5(a), effective August 11, 2017, inserted "revoked or" in the last sentence in the section. For applicability, see editor's note.
