Type of Review: Extension without change of a currently approved

Abstract: The previously approved regulations relate to the diesel
fuel and kerosene excise tax and reflect changes made by the American
Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (Act) regarding mechanical dye injection
systems. Under the Act, diesel fuel and kerosene that are to be used in
a nontaxable use must be indelibly dyed by use of a mechanical dye
injection system that satisfies the requirements set forth in the
regulations. However, Notice 2005-80 lifted the requirement for
mechanical injection and because of this there is currently no
requirement in the regulations for pre-approval by the IRS to inject
dye into exempt fuel. The statutory requirement remains codified until
such time they are finalized or removed. The burden has been adjusted
accordingly.
