Section 1710.33  Relocator's Endorsement of Operator's and Dispatcher's Employment Permits

a)         Operators and dispatchers are authorized to operate only under authority of a relocator's license.  As evidence that operations are under authority of a relocator's license, an owner or officer of the relocator must endorse the employment permit by completing a form showing:

1)         The name and employment permit number of the operator or dispatcher as they appear on the operator's or dispatcher's employment permit;

2)         The name and employment permit number of the relocator, as they appear on the relocator's license; and

3)         A statement that "the referenced employment permit is endorsed by the referenced relocator", followed by the signature of the owner or officer and a statement of the capacity of the signatory.

b)         Endorsements of an operator's or dispatcher's employment permit, once made by a relocator, shall become effective only when a copy is filed with the Commission.  The endorsement shall remain in effect until written notice of cancellation is filed with the Commission.

c)         Operation under an operator's or dispatcher's employment permit that does not have a valid, current endorsement by a licensed relocator is not authorized by the relocator's license and shall constitute relocating without a license in violation of Section 18a-300(1) of the Law [625 ILCS 5/18a-300(1)].

d)         Employment or use of any operator who does not have a valid, current endorsement by the relocator shall constitute the employment or use of an unlicensed operator in violation of Section 18a-300(2) of the Law [625 ILCS 5/18a-300(2)].

e)         Employment or use of any dispatcher who does not have a valid, current endorsement by the relocator shall constitute the employment or use of an unlicensed dispatcher in violation of Section 18a-300(3) of the Law [625 ILCS 5/18a-300(3)].

f)         A valid, current endorsement shall be affixed to and carried in the vehicle with the operator's employment permit at all times when the vehicle is being operated under authority of the relocator's license.
