Whenever it is determined that a taxpayer, who holds a license to mine coal in
Kentucky under KRS 351.175, is a "delinquent taxpayer" as defined in
subsection (3) of this section, the Department of Revenue shall, after giving
notice as provided in subsection (4) of this section, submit the name of the
taxpayer to the Department for Natural Resources for revocation of the license
issued under KRS 351.175.
If it is determined that a person who is an agent, contract miner, or delegate of
a delinquent taxpayer as defined in subsection (3) holds a license to mine coal
for the delinquent taxpayer in Kentucky under KRS 351.175, the Department of
Revenue shall, after giving notice as provided in subsection (4) of this section,
submit the name of the agent, contract miner, or delegate to the Department
for Natural Resources for revocation of the license issued under KRS 351.175
to mine coal for the delinquent taxpayer.
Any of the following situations is sufficient to cause a taxpayer to be classified
as a "delinquent taxpayer" for purposes of this section:
(a) When a taxpayer has an overdue state tax liability arising directly or
indirectly from the mining, transportation, or processing of coal, for which
all protest and appeal rights granted by law have expired and has been
contacted by the department concerning the overdue tax liability. This
does not include a taxpayer who is making current timely installment
payments on the overdue tax liability under agreement with the
department.
(b) When a taxpayer has not filed a required tax return as of thirty (30) days
after the due date or after the extended due date, and has been contacted
by the department concerning the delinquent return. This applies only to
tax returns required as the result of the taxpayer's involvement in the
mining, transportation, or processing of coal.
(c) When an owner, partner, or corporate officer of a proprietorship,
partnership, or corporation holding a license under KRS 351.175, held a
similar position in a business whose license was revoked as a "delinquent
taxpayer", and the tax liability remains unpaid.
At least twenty (20) days in advance of submitting a taxpayer's name to the
Department for Natural Resources as provided in subsection (1) or (2) of this
section, the department shall notify the taxpayer by certified mail that the action
is to be taken. The notice shall state the reason for the action and shall set out
the amount of any tax liability including any applicable penalties and interest
and any other area of noncompliance which must be satisfied in order to
prevent the submission of his name to the Department for Natural Resources
as a "delinquent taxpayer."
If it is determined that an applicant for a license to mine coal under the
provisions of KRS 351.175 is a delinquent taxpayer as defined in subsection
(3) of this section, or is an agent, contract miner, or delegate of a delinquent
taxpayer, the Department for Natural Resources shall refuse a mine license to
the applicant.
