	43	+	not reflect any amendments that may be subsequently adopted. If this bill
	44	+	passes third reading in the house of introduction, a bill summary that
	45	+	applies to the reengrossed version of this bill will be available at
	46	+	http://leg.colorado.gov
	47	+	.)
	48	+	The bill creates the fuels impact enterprise. The enterprise imposes
	49	+	a new fuels impact reduction fee on fuel product manufacturers to fund
	50	+	the fuels impact reduction grant program that the fuels impact enterprise
	51	+	administers. The fuels impact reduction fee is equal to $.06125 per gallon
	52	+	of fuel products delivered during the previous calendar month for sale or
	53	+	use in Colorado. The fee is collected and deposited in the fuels impact
	54	+	enterprise hazardous materials infrastructure cash fund until the fund has
	55	+	an available balance of $15 million or more.
	56	+	Under the fuels impact reduction grant program, the fuels impact
	57	+	enterprise provides grants to certain critically impacted communities,
	58	+	governments, and transportation corridors for the improvement of
	59	+	hazardous mitigation corridors and to support key commercial freight
	60	+	corridors, local and state government projects related to emergency
	61	+	responses, environmental mitigation, or projects related to the
	62	+	transportation of fuel within the state.
	63	+	The bill also amends the clean fleet enterprise so that the clean
	64	+	fleet enterprise imposes, between January 1, 2024, and December 31,
	65	+	2032, a heavy-duty diesel vehicle registration fee of $10 for heavy-duty
	66	+	diesel vehicles that are model year 2014 through 2016, $20 for
	67	+	heavy-duty diesel vehicles that are model year 2010 through 2013, and
	68	+	$50 for heavy-duty diesel vehicles that are model year 2009 or older.
	69	+	Under the diesel truck emissions reduction grant program, the
	70	+	clean fleet enterprise, along with the division of administration in the
	71	+	department of public health and environment (division), awards grant
	72	+	money to certain private and public entities to decommission diesel trucks
	73	+	and replace them with newer model trucks through. The clean fleet
	74	+	enterprise and the division are required to determine eligibility for the
	75	+	grant money and the eligible fuel types for qualifying as a replacement
	76	+	vehicle under the grant program.
	77	+	The bill also replaces a tax credit for a qualified investment in a
	78	+	commercial truck, truck tractor, or semitrailer that is used solely and
	79	+	exclusively in an enterprise zone with a tax credit for the conversion,
	80	+	lease, or purchase of a bi-fuel renewable fuel truck, electric, hybrid, low
	81	+	nitrogen oxides, plug-in hybrid electric, or renewable fuel truck that is
	82	+	predominantly housed and based at a taxpayer's business facility within
	83	+	an enterprise zone for the 12-month period following its purchase and is
	84	+	not used for personal use. The new credit:
	85	+	280
	86	+	-2- ! Is available between tax years 2023 and 2029;
	87	+	! May be assigned to the financial entity that finances the
	88	+	lease or purchase of the truck;
	89	+	! May not be carried forward, but may be refunded; and
	90	+	! Is available in an amount that depends on the type of truck
	91	+	the taxpayer converts, leases, or purchases and when that
	92	+	conversion, lease, or purchase occurs.
	93	+	Beginning October 1, 2023, the bill modifies the fee that is
	94	+	currently collected for distribution to the perfluoroalkyl and
	95	+	polyfluoroalkyl substances cash fund by extending the collection of the
	96	+	fee to 2036 and by changing the distribution of the fee revenue. Under the
	97	+	new distribution, the state treasurer shall credit:
	98	+	! An amount equal to the cost of administering the fee to the
	99	+	department of revenue;
	100	+	! $2 million of the fee revenue to the department of public
	101	+	safety to support the regulation of hazardous materials on
	102	+	highways in the state as well as the enforcement of
	103	+	commercial and hazardous materials critical corridors
	104	+	determined by the chief of the Colorado state patrol;
	105	+	! 70% of the amount remaining to the perfluoroalkyl and
	106	+	polyfluoroalkyl substances cash fund; and
	107	+	! 30% of the amount remaining to the department of
	108	+	transportation to support functions related to the
	109	+	transportation of hazardous materials and the safe and
	110	+	efficient movement of freight as well as to support
	111	+	infrastructure projects that enhance the safety of movement
	112	+	of freight and hazardous materials.
	113	+	The bill also increases the amount of fee revenue that can be held
	114	+	annually in the perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances cash fund
	115	+	from $8 million to $9 million.
	116	+	Additionally, the bill:
	117	+	! Extends authorization for the division of oil and public
	118	+	safety to use the petroleum storage tank fund for costs
	119	+	related to petroleum storage tank facility inspections and
	120	+	meter calibrations from September 1, 2023, to September
	121	+	1, 2033;
	122	+	! Delays the effective date of the $8 million cap on the
	123	+	petroleum storage tank fund from September 1, 2023, to
	124	+	September 1, 2033;
	125	+	! Allows the director of the division of oil and public safety,
	126	+	in consultation with the petroleum storage tank committee,
	127	+	to establish rules that allow an operator of petroleum
	128	+	storage tanks to apply to the petroleum storage tank fund
	129	+	for reimbursement even if the total remediation expenses
	130	+	do not exceed $10,000;
	131	+	280
	132	+	-3- ! Allows the director of the division of oil and public safety
	133	+	to annually transfer up to $500,000 from the petroleum
	134	+	storage tank fund to the petroleum cleanup and
	135	+	redevelopment fund;
	136	+	! Allows the Colorado state patrol to conform hazardous
	137	+	materials routing regulations to transportation commission
	138	+	rules; and
	139	+	! Phases out the use of certain diesel trucks on state projects.
