during the initiative.

taxes already paid or remitted to the state.

D. The Tax Commission shall promulgate rules detailing the

terms and other conditions of this program.

Oklahoma Tax Commission’s website, mail to targeted industries,

existing licensees, and all Tax Commission license applicants.

F. The Tax Commission is authorized to expend necessary

available funds, including contracting with third parties, to
