Authority: IC 4-31-6-2

Affected: IC 4-31-6-8

Sec. 2.

(a) The commission may license persons holding valid permanent (not temporary) licenses issued by ARCI member racing jurisdictions in North America. Prior to being licensed, the person must:

(1) be in good standing;

(2) have cleared a Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) or Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) fingerprint check within the previous five (5) years;

(3) file an application or affidavit as may be required by the commission; and

(4) pay the required applicable fees.

(b) The commission may recognize the issuance of racing licenses from ARCI member jurisdictions in North America or the National Racing Compact for purposes of issuance of licenses in this jurisdiction.

(c) Only permanent licenses in good standing shall be considered. Temporary or probationary licenses shall not be considered.

(d) Applicants must be in good standing in each jurisdiction where they hold or have held a racing license.

(e) Provided the above requirements have been met, the commission may issue either a license or a validation sticker. The validation sticker shall be affixed to either a license issued by this jurisdiction or a valid license issued by another ARCI member jurisdiction. The validation sticker shall measure a maximum of one-half (1/2) inch vertically, be one and one-half (11/2) inches horizontally, and shall contain:

(1) this jurisdiction's two (2) letter postal service abbreviation;

(2) the year of validation; and

(3) the audit trail code or serial number (where applicable).

The validation sticker shall be constructed of an approved tamper-resistant material. The affixing of the validation sticker shall constitute licensing. The commission shall determine the period of time that such license shall be valid in this jurisdiction.

(f) In the event the licensee is absent from this jurisdiction, and upon payment of the applicable fees, a receipt shall be mailed to the licensee's permanent address. The receipt may then be presented at the commission office so that a commission representative may affix the proper validation sticker to the racing license badge.

(g) Notwithstanding a person's purported eligibility for fingerprint reciprocity, the commission or its designee may require the fingerprinting of any applicant or licensee.
