This bill would create a new tax credit for businesses that produce alternative jet fuel in Kentucky. The credit would reduce the amount of state income tax these producers owe, though it would not result in a refund if the credit exceeds their tax bill. State agencies would be required to set rules for the program and report on how the credit is being used. Who it may affect: businesses and producers involved in manufacturing alternative jet fuel in Kentucky.
