Summary: Waste Connections, a solid waste services company, is urging the Treasury and IRS to include a project on the 2026-2027 Priority Guidance Plan to update the excise tax treatment of fuel used for power take-off (PTO) equipment. They argue that the current "separate-motor" requirement is an outdated, arbitrary barrier that unfairly taxes fuel used for off-highway business purposes and penalizes companies using modern, fuel-efficient single-motor vehicles.
