During the reconvened session of the Virginia General Assembly on April 4th, Governor Northam proposed, and legislators approved, a new fuels tax of 7.6 cents per gallon for gasoline and 7.7 cents for diesel. This tax takes effect on July 1 and will be imposed at all stations along the I-81 corridor - 325 miles from Bristol to Winchester. Working in conjunction with DMV, the Virginia Petroleum & Convenience Marketers Association (VPCMA) has developed comprehensive seminars to inform you of the specific provisions of these important changes, and most importantly, to assure your company is in compliance with Virginia law - which will take effect just two weeks later.

The training and permits are FREE and online; however, as of May 1, the Pennsylvania State Police began hard enforcement with roadside stops and penalties issued for non-compliance.
