Determine annually, during the first full business week 2 9 in April, the total number of all-terrain vehicles and 2 10 snowmobiles which are registered in the state. 2 11 2. Multiply the product of the total number of registered 2 12 all-terrain vehicles and snowmobiles and eighty-eight and 2 13 seven-tenths gallons times the amount of the excise tax 2 14 charged per gallon of motor fuel to obtain the total amount of 2 15 excise tax paid on all-terrain vehicle and snowmobile fuel. 2 16 3. Subtract from the total amount of excise tax paid on 2 17 all-terrain vehicle and snowmobile fuel an amount which 2 18 represents three percent of the total tax paid on all-terrain 2 19 vehicle and snowmobile fuel, for payment of the administrative 2 20 costs, which shall be allocated to the department of natural 2 21 resources for administration of all-terrain vehicle and 2 22 snowmobile programs. 2 23 EXPLANATION 2 24 This bill requires that revenue generated from the 2 25 imposition of the excise tax on the motor fuel used by all- 2 26 terrain vehicles and snowmobiles be deposited in the special 2 27 conservation fund.
