summary
This amendment changes the credit allowed under the bill to remove the variable credit of between 7¢ and 12¢ per pound of renewable chemical, which is based on the certification level of the contractors hired or retained to harvest the renewable biomass and the residency of those contractors' employees, to a flat credit of 8¢ per pound of renewable chemical as long as the taxpayer demonstrates to the Department of Economic and Community Development that at least 75% of the employees of the contractors hired or retained to harvest renewable biomass used in the production of the renewable chemicals meet the eligibility conditions specified in the Employment Security Law, in the Maine Revised Statutes, Title 26, chapter 13. This amendment also delays by one year the application date of the tax credit.
This amendment also corrects numbering conflicts in the bill and Committee Amendment "A" created when a chaptered law enacted provisions with the same paragraph letter or section number.
