Okla. Stat. tit. 68, § 500.4A
Levy of tax equal to reduction in federal excise tax
# A.
In the event that, by federal law, the federal excise tax imposed on gasoline or diesel fuel or both is reduced from the rate imposed on January 1, 1996, there shall be levied a tax equal to the reduction in the federal excise tax on gasoline or diesel fuel or both. The tax on gasoline or diesel fuel or both shall be imposed beginning the first day following the reduction in the rate of the federal excise tax on gasoline or diesel fuel or both. The tax imposed by this subsection resulting from a reduction in federal excise tax on gasoline or diesel fuel or both shall not include any reduction in federal excise tax imposed on diesel fuel for use in trains pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C., Section 4041, in that the federal excise tax levy on diesel fuel for use in trains is not appropriated or apportioned to the Federal Highway Trust Fund.
# B.
The tax levied pursuant to subsection A of this section shall be in addition to and applicable to all gasoline and diesel fuel subject to the tax imposed and levied pursuant to Section 500.4 of Title 68 of the Oklahoma Statutes. It is the intent of this section that the tax shall be conclusively presumed to be a direct tax and shall be a direct tax on the retail or ultimate consumer precollected for the purpose of convenience and facility to the consumer. The levy and assessment on other persons as specified in the Motor Fuel Tax Code shall be as agents of the state for the precollection of the tax. The provisions of this section shall in no way affect the method of collecting the tax as provided in the Motor Fuel Tax Code. The tax imposed by this section shall be collected and paid at those times, in the manner, and by those persons specified in the Motor Fuel Tax Code.
