138 OLR Bill Analysis SB 152 AN ACT CONCERNING ELECTRONIC DELIVERY TICKETS FOR GASOLINE, KEROSENE, FUEL OILS OR SIMILAR SUBSTANCES.

SUMMARY This bill allows fuel retailers to provide customers with an electronic delivery ticket (e-receipt), instead of a paper receipt, when delivering fuel (e.g., propane or heating oil).

For the retailer to use e-receipts, the retailer and customer must mutually agree to it in writing.

Under the bill, an e-receipt must contain the same information as a paper receipt (e.g., quantity of fuel delivered) and be provided simultaneously with delivery, as paper receipts are.

As with paper receipts, fuel retailers must maintain a record of each e-receipt for at least 12 months and their records are subject to the sealer of weights and measures’ inspection.

The bill generally applies to metered fuel truck deliveries of gasoline (at least 50 gallons) or kerosene, fuel oils, or similar substances (at least gallons) sold to create power or heat.

But, as is the case under existing law for the paper receipt requirement, the bill does not apply to barge, railroad tank car, drum, or slow flow meter deliveries (CGS 14-329(c)).

The bill also makes minor and technical changes.
