(3) The application shall be supported by credible evidence that the retail dealer is unable to comply with subsection (2) of section 66-2211 because the motor fuel storage and dispensing infrastructure located at the retail motor fuel site is not compatible with the use of E-15 gasoline and the cost to replace the motor fuel storage and dispensing infrastructure would exceed fifteen thousand dollars as determined by a person certified by the department as a professional retail motor fuel site installer. For purposes of this section, motor fuel storage and dispensing infrastructure is compatible with E-15 gasoline if the equipment is included in a list published by an independent testing laboratory for use with E-15 gasoline or the manufacturer of the equipment has issued a written statement of compatibility with E-15 gasoline.

The department shall approve or disapprove a completed application within one hundred twenty days following the date that the application was submitted to the department.
(7) The retail dealer shall sign the application, which shall include a statement that the retail dealer swears or affirms that all information in the application completed by the retail dealer is true and correct.
