A recent “special alert” to the ACPA membership informed members about increased scrutiny by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) on concrete pumping companies who have filed for refunds of federal fuel excise tax. In each instance, it appeared the concrete pumping company incorrectly applied for, and received, a refund of the federal fuel tax they paid based on a portion of fuel consumed while in PTO. While many states allow for a portion or percentage of state fuel tax to be refunded for off-road or PTO use, currently there is no such type of federal exemption allowable.
