 20  8 televising is done at the racetrack of a licensee that
 20  9 schedules no less than sixty performances of nine live
 20 10 races each day of the season.  For purposes of the
 20 11 taxes imposed under this chapter, races televised by a
 20 12 licensee for purposes of pari-mutuel wagering shall be
 20 13 treated as if the races were held at the racetrack of

 20 15 in this chapter, the commission may allow a licensee

 20 17 mutuel racetrack from which the races are being

 20 39 peace officers in the enforcement of the law, persons
 20 40 enforcing chapter 124 and other laws relating to
 20 41 controlled substances, persons in the department of
 20 42 justice, the alcoholic beverages division of the

 21 12 indicated on the bill of sale which shall be carried
 21 13 by the driver.

 21 28 product if deliveries are less frequent than weekly,
 21 29 any empty beverage container of the kind, size and
 21 30 brand sold by the distributor, and shall pay to the
 21 31 dealer or person operating a redemption center the
 21 32 refund value of a beverage container and the
 21 33 reimbursement as provided under section 455C.2 within
 21 34 one week following pickup of the containers or when
 21 35 the dealer or redemption center normally pays the
 21 36 distributor for the deposit on beverage products
 21 37 purchased from the distributor if less frequent than
 21 38 weekly.  A distributor or employee or agent of a
 21 39 distributor is not in violation of this subsection if
 21 40 a redemption center is closed when the distributor
 21 41 attempts to make a regular delivery or a regular
 21 42 pickup of empty beverage containers.  This subsection
 21 43 does not apply to a distributor selling alcoholic
 21 44 liquor to the alcoholic beverages division of the
 21 45 department of commerce.
 21 46    Sec. 37.  Section 455C.3, subsection 5, Code 1995,
