(1) Every licensee shall maintain complete records on all motor vehicles, by type,
operating on Kentucky highways, weight and number of axles, mileage records and
records of all purchases, use, and other dispositions of gasoline and special fuels.
Such records , together with manifests of lading, invoices, and other papers
pertaining to gasoline or special fuels consumption, shall be retained for a period of
five (5) years and shall be made available to the Transportation Cabinet upon
request for examination.
(2) If any licensee fails or refuses upon request to furnish any information to the
Transportation Cabinet concerning an audit, assessment, or verification of tax
information, the cabinet may make an estimate of the licensee's tax due and issue an
assessment against the licensee based upon the estimated tax due. Such assessment
may be used by the cabinet in any legal proceeding for collection of the tax. The
cabinet may, at any subsequent proceeding, require the taxpayer to file any reports
or additional information it deems necessary.
