Each terminal operator, other than a supplier licensed under\n\nsubsection A of this section, engaged in business in this state as a\n\nterminal operator shall first obtain a terminal operator's license\n\nfor each terminal site.\n\nD. Each person, except suppliers, desiring to export motor fuel\n\nto a destination outside of this state shall first obtain an\n\nexporter's license. The state shall require that any exporter who\n\nexports product to another state without first paying the motor fuel\n\ntax of that destination state to the supplier shall first obtain an\n\nexporter's license.\n\nE.

Paragraph 1 of this subsection shall not apply to persons\n\nwho exclusively import motor fuel which is exempted because in\n\naccordance with paragraph 16 of Section 500.10 of this title it has\n\nbeen dyed.\n\n3.
