A heavy equipment rental provider is primarily engaged in the business of renting heavy equipment without an operator if more than 50 percent of gross revenue earned from the rental of personal property (as defined in ORS 307.020 and OAR 150-307-0030) in Oregon during the rental provider's prior fiscal year was from the rental of heavy equipment, heavy equipment attachments, associated trailers, and other equipment and tools that:

(C) renting equipment from a facility located outside of Oregon; and

(D) renting equipment to an affiliate, as defined in ORS 307.870.

(4) Any person meeting the requirements in section (3) is a qualified heavy equipment rental provider for purposes of the heavy equipment rental tax established by ORS 307.872, and must register with the Oregon Department of Revenue annually, and collect and remit heavy equipment rental tax quarterly.
