1. The owner, operator, or lessee of transmission lines, for which payments in lieu of property taxes are assessed by the state board of equalization under section 57-06-17.3, is entitled to a credit against tax in the amount provided in subsection 3. The credit for each transmission company must be allocated to the counties in the same manner as the tax collected from that company is allocated. 2. The owner, operator, or lessee of electric transmission or distribution property, for which payments in lieu of property taxes are assessed by the state board of equalization under sections 57-33.2-02 or 57-33.2-03, is entitled to a credit against the transmission or distribution tax in the amount provided in subsection 3. The credit for each transmission or distribution company must be allocated and distributed to counties in the same manner as the tax collected from that company is allocated. 3. The amount of credit is determined by multiplying the company's assessed tax by a fraction, the numerator of which is the total of all formula payments calculated for the subsequent calendar year under section 50-35-03 and the denominator of which is the total statewide ad valorem property tax levied in the prior taxable year. 4. The tax commissioner shall annually calculate the amount of credit to which a company is entitled under this section.
