begun. Both methods are subject to a continuity
requirement.
1. The Physical Work Test is satisfied when physical
work of a significant nature begins, and the other
requirements are met.
2. The Five Percent Safe Harbor is satisfied when a
taxpayer pays or incurs 5% or more of the total cost of the
qualified project and meets the other requirements.
Basis Reduction
Unless you elect not to claim the credit, you must reduce
the basis of the property by the sum of the amounts
entered on lines 7 and 13 for that property.
In the case of any applicable entity which makes the
election for payment of alternative fuel vehicle refueling
property credit, the credit is determined without regard to
section 50(b)(3) and (4)(A)(i), and that property is treated
as used in a trade or business of the applicable entity.
The Continuity Requirement is satisfied if you
demonstrate either continuous construction or continuous
effort.
Recapture
If the property no longer qualifies for the credit, you may
have to recapture part or all of the credit. For more
information, see section 30C(e)(5).
Prevailing wage requirements. The taxpayer will
ensure that any laborers and mechanics employed by the
taxpayer or any contractor or subcontractor in the
construction of any qualified alternative fuel vehicle
refueling property that is part of the project are paid wages
at rates not less than the prevailing rates for construction,
alteration, or repair of a similar character in the locality in
which the project is located as most recently determined
by the Secretary of Labor, in accordance with subchapter
IV of chapter 31 of title 40, United States Code.
Apprenticeship requirements. Regarding the
construction of any qualified alternative fuel vehicle
refueling property that is part of the project,
apprenticeship requirements are as follows.
Specific Instructions
Line 1
Attach a separate statement listing, for each property, a
description and eligible census tract location for the
property, including the 11-digit census tract Geographic
Identifier (GEOID) for the population census tract. The
11-digit census tract GEOID is a GEOID defined by the
U.S. Census Bureau and comprised of a 2-digit state
GEOID, 3-digit county GEOID, and 6-digit census tract
GEOID. The 11-digit census tract GEOID provides a
unique identifier for each population census tract in the
United States, including tracts in U.S. territories.
Taxpayers must ensure that the applicable percentage
•
of the total labor hours of the construction, alteration, or
repair work (including such work performed by any
contractor or subcontractor), subject to apprentice to
journeyworker ratio, be performed by qualified
apprentices. For construction that begins in 2023, the ratio
is 12.5%. For construction that begins after December 31,
2023, the ratio is 15%.
Line 2
To figure the business/investment use part of the total
cost, multiply the cost of each separate refueling property
by the percentage of business/investment use for that
property. If during the tax year you convert property used
solely for personal purposes to business/investment use
(or vice versa), figure the percentage of business/
investment use only for the number of months you use the
property in your business or for the production of income.
Multiply that percentage by the number of months you use
the property in your business or for the production of
income and divide the result by 12.
Apprenticeship requirements for

apprentice-to-journeyworker ratios are subject to any
applicable requirements for apprentice-to-journeyworker
ratios of the Department of Labor or the applicable state
