§807.1. Application, payment of tax, decals; penalties
A. Any person who wishes to operate, upon the highways of this state, a motor vehicle which uses or is capable of using liquefied petroleum gas or compressed natural gas as motor fuel shall make application, on or before July thirty-first of each year, to the secretary of the Department of Revenue for a permit to operate the motor vehicle on the highways of this state. The application shall be made on a form furnished and prescribed by the secretary and shall contain any information which the secretary may reasonably require.
B. The applicant shall pay to the secretary, at the time that application for a permit is made, the tax levied under R.S. 47:802.3. Upon payment of the tax and approval of the application, the secretary shall issue to the taxpayer a permit to operate the motor vehicle upon the highways of this state for the period from July first to June thirtieth. If a person makes application after July thirty-first, the amount of the tax due shall be reduced by one-twelfth for each month which has elapsed since July first.
C. Any person who operates more than one motor vehicle using or capable of using liquefied petroleum gas or compressed natural gas shall pay the tax and obtain a permit for each motor vehicle which he wishes to operate upon the highways of this state.
D. Upon issuance of a permit, the secretary shall issue to the taxpayer a decal for each motor vehicle, which shall be in a form prescribed by the secretary. Each decal shall be affixed to the motor vehicle in the manner prescribed by the secretary so that the decal is clearly visible.
E. The secretary shall provide a procedure for the payment of the tax and the issuance on an annual basis.
F. Any person who sells or transfers title of a motor vehicle which is propelled by an internal combustion engine or motor capable of using liquefied petroleum gas or compressed natural gas as fuel shall transfer the permit at the time of the transfer of the vehicle. The secretary shall prescribe a procedure for such transfer of permits and the Department of Revenue shall be notified at the time of any such transfer.
G. It shall be a violation of this Part for any person to operate or cause to be operated a motor vehicle upon the highways of this state which is subject to the requirements of this Part upon which the tax has not been paid or for which no permit has been issued or to which no decal has been attached. In addition to all other liability, such person shall be liable for a penalty of twenty-five dollars for the first violation and a penalty of seventy-five dollars for each subsequent violation.
