 8    amended by changing Section 315 as follows:

 9        (415 ILCS 125/315)
10        (Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2003)
11        Sec. 315.  Fee on receivers of  fuel  for  sale  or  use;
12    collection  and  reporting.  A person that is required to pay
13    the fee imposed  by  this  Law  shall  pay  the  fee  to  the
14    Department by return showing all fuel purchased, acquired, or
15    received  and  sold, distributed or used during the preceding
16    calendar month, including losses of fuel  as  the  result  of
17    evaporation  or  shrinkage due to temperature variations, and
18    such other  reasonable  information  as  the  Department  may
19    require.   Losses  of  fuel  as  the result of evaporation or
20    shrinkage due to temperature variations may not exceed 1% one
21    percent of the total gallons in storage at the  beginning  of
 
                            -2-              LRB9204505SMpkam
 1    the  month,  plus the receipts of gallonage during the month,
 2    minus the gallonage remaining in storage at the  end  of  the
 3    month.   Any  loss  reported that is in excess of this amount
 4    shall be subject to the fee imposed by Section  310  of  this
 5    Law.  On  and  after  July  1,  2001, for each 6-month period
 6    January through June, net losses of fuel (for  each  category
 7    of  fuel  that is required to be reported on a return) as the
 8    result  of  evaporation  or  shrinkage  due  to   temperature
 9    variations  may not exceed 1% of the total gallons in storage
10    at the beginning  of  each  January,  plus  the  receipts  of
11    gallonage  each  January  through  June,  minus the gallonage
12    remaining in storage at the end of each June.  On  and  after
13    July  1, 2001, for each 6-month period July through December,
14    net losses of  fuel  (for  each  category  of  fuel  that  is
15    required  to  be  reported  on  a  return)  as  the result of
16    evaporation or shrinkage due to  temperature  variations  may
17    not  exceed  1%  of  the  total  gallons  in  storage  at the
18    beginning of each July, plus the receipts of  gallonage  each
19    July  through  December,  minus  the  gallonage  remaining in
20    storage at the end of each December.  Any net  loss  reported
21    that  is in excess of this amount shall be subject to the fee
22    imposed by Section 310 of this Law.   For  purposes  of  this
23    Section,  "net  loss"  means  the  number  of  gallons gained
24    through temperature variations minus the  number  of  gallons
25    lost  through  temperature variations or evaporation for each
26    of the respective 6-month periods.
27        The return shall be  prescribed  by  the  Department  and
28    shall be filed between the 1st and 20th days of each calendar
29    month.   The  Department  may, in its discretion, combine the
30    return filed under this  Law  with  the  return  filed  under
31    Section  2b  of  the  Motor  Fuel  Tax Law.  If the return is
32    timely filed, the receiver may  take  a  discount  of  2%  to
33    reimburse  himself  for  the  expenses  incurred  in  keeping
34    records,   preparing   and  filing  returns,  collecting  and
 
                            -3-              LRB9204505SMpkam
 1    remitting the fee, and supplying data to  the  Department  on
 2    request.  However, the 2% discount applies only to the amount
 3    of  the  fee payment that accompanies a return that is timely
 4    filed in accordance with this Section.
