§ 9007.  Determination and redetermination of tax, penalties and interest due. (a)  Determination.-- If the department is not satisfied with the report and payment of tax made by any distributor under the provisions of this chapter, it is authorized to make a determination of the tax due by the distributor based upon the facts contained in the report or upon any information within its possession. (b)  Notice.-- Promptly after the date of determination, the department shall send by registered mail a copy to the distributor. Within 90 days after the date upon which the copy of the determination was mailed, the distributor may file with the department a petition for redetermination of such tax. A petition for redetermination must state specifically the reasons which the petitioner believes allow the redetermination and must be supported by affidavit that it is not made for the purpose of delay and that the facts set forth are true. The department shall, within six months after the date of a determination, dispose of a petition for redetermination. Notice of the action taken upon any petition for redetermination shall be given to the petitioner promptly after the date of redetermination by the department. (c)  Administrative appeal.-- Within 60 days after the date of mailing of notice by the department of the action taken on any petition for redetermination filed with it, the distributor against whom the determination was made may by petition request the Board of Finance and Revenue to review the action. A petition for review must state specifically the reason upon which the petitioner relies or must incorporate by reference the petition for redetermination in which the reasons have been stated. The petition must be supported by affidavit that it is not made for the purpose of delay and that the facts set forth are true. If the petitioner is a corporation or association, the affidavit must be made by one of its principal officers. A petition for review may be amended by the petitioner at any time prior to the hearing. The board shall act finally in disposition of petitions filed with it within six months after they have been received. In the event of the failure to dispose of a petition within six months, the action taken by the department upon the petition for redetermination shall be deemed sustained. The board may sustain the action taken on the petition for redetermination or it may redetermine the tax due upon such basis as it deems according to law and equity. Notice of the action of the board shall be given to the department and to the petitioner. (d)  Sanctions.-- If a distributor neglects or refuses to make a report and payment of tax required by this chapter, the department shall estimate the tax due by such distributor and determine the amount due for taxes, penalties and interest. There shall be no right of review or appeal from this determination. Upon neglect or refusal, permits issued to the distributor may be suspended or revoked by the department and required to be surrendered to the department. Cross References.
