(9) The fluidized bed combustion technology tax exemption certificate, upon approval, shall exempt the facilities from taxes outlined in the provision of this section and <br>KRS Chapters 132, 136, 138, and 139. Each exemption certificate shall remain in <br>force for a period of eight (8) years from the date of issuance and at the end of said <br>period shall lapse.
