be stated as a separate item on the invoice.
    For the purpose of the tax imposed by this Section, being a
receiver of "motor fuel" as defined by Section 1.1 of this Act,

regard to whether the fuel is intended to be used for operation
of motor vehicles on the public highways and waters. However,
no such tax shall be imposed upon the importation or receipt of
aviation fuels and kerosene at airports with over 300,000
operations per year, for years prior to 1991, and over 170,000
operations per year beginning in 1991, located in a city of
more than 1,000,000 inhabitants for sale to or use by holders
of certificates of public convenience and necessity or foreign
air carrier permits, issued by the United States Department of
Transportation, and their air carrier affiliates, or upon the
importation or receipt of aviation fuels and kerosene at
facilities owned or leased by those certificate or permit
holders and used in their activities at an airport described
above. In addition, no such tax shall be imposed upon the
importation or receipt of diesel fuel sold to or used by a rail
carrier registered pursuant to Section 18c-7201 of the Illinois
Vehicle Code or otherwise recognized by the Illinois Commerce
Commission as a rail carrier, to the extent used directly in
railroad operations. In addition, no such tax shall be imposed
when the sale is made with delivery to a purchaser outside this
State or when the sale is made to a person holding a valid
license as a receiver. In addition, no tax shall be imposed
upon diesel fuel consumed or used in the operation of ships,
barges, or vessels, that are used primarily in or for the
