1 AN ACT concerning taxes.
2 Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
3 represented in the General Assembly:
4 Section 5. The Use Tax Act is amended by changing
5 Section 3-10 and by adding Sections 3-41 and 3-42 as follows:
6 (35 ILCS 105/3-10) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.3-10)
7 Sec. 3-10. Rate of tax. Unless otherwise provided in
8 this Section, the tax imposed by this Act is at the rate of
9 6.25% of either the selling price or the fair market value,
10 if any, of the tangible personal property. In all cases
11 where property functionally used or consumed is the same as
12 the property that was purchased at retail, then the tax is
13 imposed on the selling price of the property. In all cases
14 where property functionally used or consumed is a by-product
15 or waste product that has been refined, manufactured, or
16 produced from property purchased at retail, then the tax is
17 imposed on the lower of the fair market value, if any, of the
18 specific property so used in this State or on the selling
19 price of the property purchased at retail. For purposes of
20 this Section "fair market value" means the price at which
21 property would change hands between a willing buyer and a
22 willing seller, neither being under any compulsion to buy or
23 sell and both having reasonable knowledge of the relevant
24 facts. The fair market value shall be established by Illinois
25 sales by the taxpayer of the same property as that
26 functionally used or consumed, or if there are no such sales
27 by the taxpayer, then comparable sales or purchases of
28 property of like kind and character in Illinois.
29 Beginning on July 1, 2000 and through December 31, 2000,
30 with respect to motor fuel, as defined in Section 1.1 of the

28 under this Act on sales of bio-diesel blend fuel with no more
29 than 10% fuel made from biomass material is imposed at the
30 rate of 1.25%, then the tax imposed by this Act applies to
31 100% of the proceeds of sales of bio-diesel blend fuel with
32 no more than 10% fuel made from biomass material made during
