The amount | 0023| of the combined bond, cash or securities shall be determined by | 0024| the department, and the form of the combined bond shall be | 0025| approved by the attorney general. | 0001| H.

If a taxpayer exempted pursuant to this subsection | 0012| subsequently becomes a delinquent taxpayer under the Gasoline | 0013| Tax Act, the department may terminate the exemption and require | 0014| the filing of a bond in accordance with this section. If the | 0015| department terminates the exemption, the termination shall not | 0016| be effective any earlier than ten days after the date the | 0017| department notifies the taxpayer in writing of the termination." | 0018| Section 5.
