  2. For purposes of this section:
    1. “Qualified building materials” means tangible personal property purchased during the period between July 1, 2019, and December 31, 2026, that becomes part of the real property comprising the facility; and

    1. A taxpayer seeking the exemption provided under this section shall submit an application for exemption to the commissioner of revenue, describing the investment to be made during the qualified capital investment period. The application must be submitted on forms prescribed by the commissioner and demonstrate that the requirements of this section will be met.
    2. After approval of the exemption application, the commissioner shall issue a certificate of exemption to the taxpayer.
  3. If any requirements of this section are not met, the taxpayer is liable for any sales or use tax, penalty, or interest that would otherwise have been due with respect to items purchased on a tax-exempt basis pursuant to this section. Notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, the amount of any tax due under this subsection (d) must be assessed within three (3) years of December 31 of the final year of the investment period; provided, however, that such time to assess may be extended pursuant to § 67-1-1501(b)(5).
