| or Secretary of
State or Illinois Department of State | 2 |
| Police identification number for the
essential part shall | 3 |
| be ascertained and recorded even if such part is

Illinois Department of | 8 |
| State Police identification number for an essential part

| his agents or employees while the licensee or
agent or | 13 |
| employee was outside this State, that licensee or agent or
| 14 |

LRB095 14708 DRH 40629 b |
|
| 1 |
| essential parts other than hulks, chassis, frames or cowls, | 2 |
| shall apply
only to those essential parts which are 6 model | 3 |
| years of age or newer. In
determining the model year of | 4 |
| such an essential part it may be presumed
that the | 5 |
| identification number of the vehicle from which the | 6 |
| essential part
came or the identification number affixed to | 7 |
| the essential part itself
acquired by the licensee denotes | 8 |
| the model year of that essential part.
This presumption, | 9 |
| however, shall not apply if the gross appearance of the
| 10 |
| essential part does not correspond to the year, make or | 11 |
| model of either the
identification number of the vehicle | 12 |
| from which the essential part is
alleged to have come or | 13 |
| the identification number which is affixed to the
essential | 14 |
| part itself. To determine whether an essential part is 6 | 15 |
| years
of age or newer within this paragraph, the model year | 16 |
| of the
essential part shall be subtracted from the calendar | 17 |
| year in which the
essential part is acquired or disposed of | 18 |
| by the licensee. If the
remainder is 6 or less, the record | 19 |
| of the acquisition or disposition of
that essential part | 20 |
| shall be kept as required by this Section.
| 21 |
| (F) The requirements of paragraph (2) of subsection (a) | 22 |
| of this
Section shall not apply to the disposition of an | 23 |
| essential part other than
a cowl which has been damaged or | 24 |
| altered to a state in which it can no
longer be returned to | 25 |
| a usable condition and which is being sold or
transferred | 26 |
| to a scrap processor or for delivery to a scrap processor.

| Secretary of State
including officers of the Secretary of | 10 |
| State's Department of Police, other
peace officers, and such | 11 |
| other individuals as the Secretary may designate
from time to | 12 |
| time shall make inspections of individuals and facilities | 13 |
| licensed
or required to be licensed under Chapter 5 of the | 14 |
| Illinois Vehicle Code
for the purpose of reviewing records | 15 |
| required to be maintained under
Chapter 5 for accuracy and | 16 |
| completeness and reviewing and examining the
premises of the | 17 |
| licensee's established or additional place of business
for the | 18 |
| purpose of determining the accuracy of the required records.
| 19 |
| Premises that may be inspected in order to determine the | 20 |
| accuracy of the
books and records required to be kept includes | 21 |
| all premises used by the
licensee to store vehicles and parts | 22 |
| that are reflected by the required books and records.
| 23 |
| (2) Persons having knowledge of or conducting inspections | 24 |
| pursuant to
this Chapter shall not in advance of such | 25 |
| inspections knowingly notify a
licensee or representative of a |
|
|

|
| 1 |
| licensee of the contemplated inspection
unless the Secretary or | 2 |
| an individual designated by him for this purpose
authorizes | 3 |
| such notification. Any individual who, without authorization,
| 4 |
| knowingly violates this subparagraph shall be guilty of a Class | 5 |
| A misdemeanor.
| 6 |
| (3) The licensee or a representative of the licensee shall | 7 |
| be entitled
to be present during an inspection conducted | 8 |
| pursuant to Chapter 5, however,
the presence of the licensee or | 9 |
| an authorized representative of the licensee
is not a condition | 10 |
| precedent to such an inspection.
| 11 |
| (4) Inspection conducted pursuant to Chapter 5 may be | 12 |
| initiated at any
time that business is being conducted or work | 13 |
| is being performed, whether
or not open to the public or when | 14 |
| the licensee or a representative of the
licensee, other than a | 15 |
| mere custodian or watchman, is present. The fact
that a | 16 |
| licensee or representative of the licensee leaves the licensed | 17 |
| premises
after an inspection has been initiated shall not | 18 |
| require the termination
of the inspection.
| 19 |
| (5) Any inspection conducted pursuant to Chapter 5 shall | 20 |
| not continue
for more than 24 hours after initiation.
| 21 |
| (6) In the event information comes to the attention of the | 22 |
| individuals
conducting an inspection that may give rise to the | 23 |
| necessity of obtaining
a search warrant, and in the event steps | 24 |
| are initiated for the procurement
of a search warrant, the | 25 |
| individuals conducting such inspection may take
all necessary | 26 |
| steps to secure the premises under inspection until the warrant

| (7) No more than 6 inspections of a premises may be | 3 |
| conducted pursuant
to Chapter 5 within any 6 month period | 4 |
| except pursuant to a search warrant.
Notwithstanding this | 5 |
| limitation, nothing in this subparagraph (7) shall be
construed | 6 |
| to limit the authority of law enforcement agents to respond to
| 7 |
| public complaints of violations of the Code. For the purpose of | 8 |
| this
subparagraph (7), a public complaint is one in which the | 9 |
| complainant identifies
himself or herself and sets forth, in | 10 |
| writing, the specific basis for their
complaint against the | 11 |
| licensee. For the purpose of this subparagraph (7), the | 12 |
| inspection of records pertaining only to scrap metals, as | 13 |
| provided in subdivision (a)(5) of Section 5-401.3 of this Code, | 14 |
| shall not be counted as an inspection of a premises.
| 15 |
| (8) Nothing in this Section shall be construed to limit the | 16 |
| authority
of individuals by the Secretary pursuant to this | 17 |
| Section to conduct searches
of licensees pursuant to a duly | 18 |
| issued and authorized search warrant.
| 19 |
| (9) Any licensee who, having been informed by a person | 20 |
| authorized to
make inspections and examine records under this | 21 |
| Section that he desires to
inspect records and the licensee's | 22 |
| premises as authorized by this Section,
refuses either to | 23 |
| produce for that person records required to be kept by
this | 24 |
| Chapter or to permit such authorized person to make an | 25 |
| inspection of
the premises in accordance with this Section | 26 |

immediate suspension by the |
