Where did you get those figures from? I read some info. from the Federal Tax website relating to illegal use of non-taxed dyed diesel fuel, and it states a much lower figure -like $10 per gallon fine. Here's a portion of what they have posted: "By law, untaxed (dyed) fuel is only allowable for off-highway use, such as farm and
construction operations and home heating oil. Such fuel is dyed red to indicate that it is
tax-exempt and to help inspectors quickly identify any questionable use of the fuel.
The state and federal penalty for improperly using untaxed (dyed) fuel is a minimum fine
of $10 a gallon or $1,000, whichever is greater. Since 1997, Pennsylvania has conducted
more than 135,000 diesel fuel inspections, identified 669 violations and collected almost
$1 million in fines.
Besides the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, U.S. partners in this program are the
District of Columbia, Internal Revenue Service, U.S. Customs and International Fuel Tax
Agreement (IFTA) members Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts,
New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island and Vermont.
The Canadian partners include the provinces of Quebec, Ontario, New Brunswick and
Nova Scotia, also IFTA members, and Revenue Canada and Canada Customs."
