§ 27-55-513. Adoption of rules and regulations for issuance of permits.
(1) The commission may adopt rules and regulations to provide for the issuance of permits to persons performing contracts for construction, reconstruction, maintenance or repairs, where such contracts are entered into with the State of Mississippi, any political subdivision of the State of Mississippi, any department, agency or institution of the State of Mississippi or any political subdivision thereof, allowing or requiring such persons to purchase special fuel for use in performing such contracts without the payment to the distributor of the tax levied in this article, and to provide that such persons report and pay such tax directly to the commission in instances where the commission determines that such payment will facilitate and expedite the collection of the tax which may be due on special fuel used by the permittee.
(2) The distributor of special fuel is relieved of collecting and remitting the taxes levied in this article, when furnished with a copy of a permit issued pursuant to this section and the person holding the permit shall become liable for such taxes instead of the distributor. The full enforcement provisions of this article shall apply in the collection of the tax from the permittee.
(3) The commission may require the permittee to execute and file with the commission a good and valid bond written by a surety company authorized to do business in this state. The bond shall be conditioned that all taxes which may accrue to the State of Mississippi under the provisions of this article will be paid when due. Provided, further, the commission may accept a bond filed under the provisions of Section 27-65-21, Mississippi Code of 1972, when such bond is conditioned upon the payment of the taxes imposed by this article.
