for:

v)         To qualify a vehicle for intrastate movements unless otherwise

provided for in this rule.

B)        Permits may be issued in advance of a movement in the name of

the applicant, and the applicant may then complete the vehicle data required in

advance of the movement.  However, data must be typed in before the movement

vehicle or combination but once.  Copies of used permits must be retained for

four calendar years and be available for audit.

D)        A permit shall be valid for only one proper use within 90 days

after issuance and shall be void thereafter.

E)        A "carnival" vehicle properly registered in a

reciprocal jurisdiction which has come to rest at a point in Illinois and which

is then to be moved to another point in Illinois in an intrastate movement

shall be eligible for a one-trip permit for carnival purposes only.  No blank

permits will be issued

for only one proper use within 90 days

after issuance and shall be void thereafter.

E)        A "carnival" vehicle properly registered in a

reciprocal jurisdiction which has come to rest at a point in Illinois and which

is then to be moved to another point in Illinois in an intrastate movement

shall be eligible for a one-trip permit for carnival purposes only.  No blank

permits will be issued.
