The Coalfield Employment Enhancement Tax Credit provides a composite tax credit for coal mined in Virginia and coal bed

methane gas produced in Virginia based on a per ton or per million BTU rate and an employment factor. This credit will be earned

and reported on the 1996 through 2007 Virginia income tax returns and claimed on the 1999 through 2010 income tax returns

based on the credit redemption schedule in the Form 306 instructions; it may not be claimed prior to the 1999 return. If the credit

amount exceeds the tax on the income tax return when filed, the excess credit will be applied to any other taxes imposed by the

State of Virginia. The Department of Taxation will redeem any remaining credit as follows: ninety percent will be refunded directly

and the remaining ten percent will be deposited in a regional economic development fund administered by the Coalfields Eco-

nomic Development Authority. For credits earned for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2002, the refundable excess

will be reduced to 85% with the remaining 15% being deposited into the regional economic development fund.
