1. Each distributor of gasoline upon which a tax is imposed pursuant to this chapter shall forward to the director not later than the last day of the month next following the month of delivery, a copy of the invoice for each delivery of such gasoline to a marina or other retailer who sells such gasoline to the ultimate consumer for use in a boat or ship operating on the waterways of this state and which is located in a county containing any part of a lake having one hundred miles of shoreline or more. Each invoice submitted to the director shall include the name and address of the purchaser, the county in which the gasoline was delivered, the quantity of gasoline delivered and the amount of gasoline tax collected thereon.

2. Prior to July first of each year, each county described in subsection 1 of this section and the state highways and transportation commission shall jointly file with the director a statement listing each public road in that county which provides access to a lake having one hundred miles of shoreline or more, and which the state highways and transportation commission assumed ownership of, from the county, after June 30, 1989. This statement shall list the mutually agreed percentage of unclaimed refunds of gasoline tax collected within that county under the provisions of this section to be paid to that county, and the percentage which is to be paid to the state highways and transportation commission. Until the state highways and transportation commission assumes ownership of one or more such public roads in a county after June 30, 1989, that county shall receive one hundred percent of all unclaimed refunds of gasoline tax derived from that county. If no such statement is filed, the director may assume that the most recent statement on file for that county is correct. As the state highways and transportation commission assumes ownership of one or more such lake access roads within a county, its percentage of unclaimed refunds of gasoline tax collected within that county shall increase correspondingly. The various counties and the state highways and transportation commission are authorized to enter into agreements to effectuate the purpose and intent of this section.

3. No later than August fifteenth of each year, the director shall compare the invoices for delivery of gasoline in each county for use in boats or ships during the previous year with the sales slips submitted to support the claims for refund of gasoline tax provided in this section, and shall, with the approval of the Missouri department of transportation, pay to each county that county's agreed percentage of record of the amount by which the tax paid in the county on sales of gasoline for use in boats and ships exceeds the tax refunded on gasoline purchased in the county. The balance of the unclaimed boat or ship gasoline tax refunds for the county shall be deposited in the state road fund for the use of the highways and transportation commission.

4. The refunds of gasoline tax received by each county in accordance with the provisions of this section shall be used by that county for the construction, repair and maintenance of public roads in the county which connect a state highway with a lake having one hundred miles of shoreline or more and for no other purpose. The state highways and transportation commission is authorized but not required to assume the ownership and responsibility for the construction, repair, and maintenance of a road which provides access to a lake having one hundred miles of shoreline or more, and each county commission having such a road is authorized to transfer its ownership of the road to the highways and transportation commission when that ownership transfer is mutually agreeable. When the highways and transportation commission assumes ownership of any such road, that road becomes a part of the state highway system, and shall be constructed, reconstructed, repaired and maintained as the highways and transportation commission deems appropriate from the revenue available in the state road fund and any other available sources.
