43-1170.01. Credit for agricultural pollution control equipment
A. A credit is allowed against the taxes imposed by this title for expenses that a taxpayer, involved in the commercial production of livestock, livestock products or agricultural, horticultural, viticultural or floricultural crops or products, incurred during the taxable year to purchase tangible personal property that is primarily used in the taxpayer's trade or business in this state to control or prevent pollution. The amount of the credit is equal to twenty-five per cent of the cost of the real or personal property. The maximum credit that a taxpayer may claim under this section is twenty-five thousand dollars in a taxable year.
B. Property that qualifies for the credit under this section includes the portion of a structure, building, installation, excavation, machine, equipment or device and any attachment or addition to or reconstruction, replacement or improvement of that property that is directly used, constructed or installed in this state to prevent, monitor, control or reduce air, water or land pollution.
C. Amounts that qualify for a credit under this section must be includible in the taxpayer's adjusted basis for the property. The adjusted basis of any property with respect to which the taxpayer has claimed a credit shall be reduced by the amount of credit claimed with respect to that asset. This credit does not affect the deductibility for depreciation or amortization of the remaining adjusted basis of the asset.
D. Co-owners of a business, including corporate partners in a partnership, may each claim only the pro rata share of the credit allowed under this section based on the ownership interest. The total of the credits allowed all such owners may not exceed the amount that would have been allowed a sole owner.
E. If the allowable tax credit exceeds the taxes otherwise due under this title on the claimant's income, or if there are no taxes due under this title, the amount of the claim not used to offset the taxes under this title may be carried forward to the next five consecutive taxable years as a credit against subsequent years' income tax liability.
F. A taxpayer who claims a credit for pollution control equipment under this section shall not claim a credit under section 43-1170 for the same equipment or expense.
