Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as
Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.

Sec. 50. Issuance of license; renewal; fees nonrefundable.
(a) The Office, upon the applicant's satisfactory completion of
the
requirements imposed under this Act and upon receipt of the requisite
fees, shall
issue the appropriate license showing the name, address, and photograph of
the
licensee and the dates of issuance and expiration. The license shall include the name of the pyrotechnic distributor or production company employing the lead pyrotechnic operator or insuring the lead pyrotechnic operator as an additional named insured on the pyrotechnic distributor's product liability and general liability insurance, as required under paragraphs (2) and (3) of subsection (c) of Section 35, or insuring the lead pyrotechnic operator as an additional named insured on the production company's general liability insurance, as required under paragraph (1) of subsection (c-3) of Section 35. A lead pyrotechnic operator is required to have a separate license for each pyrotechnic distributor or production company who employs the lead pyrotechnic operator or insures the lead pyrotechnic operator as an additional named insured on the pyrotechnic distributor's product liability and general liability insurance, as required under paragraphs (2) and (3) of subsection (c) of Section 35, or insures the lead pyrotechnic operator as an additional named insured on the production company's general liability insurance, as required under paragraph (1) of subsection (c-3) of Section 35.
(b) Each licensee may apply for renewal of his or her license upon
payment of the applicable
fees. The expiration date and renewal period for each
license
issued under this Act shall be set by rule. Failure to renew within 60 days of
the expiration date
results in lapse of the license. A lapsed license may not be reinstated until a
written
application is filed, the renewal fee is paid, and the reinstatement fee
established by the
Office is paid. Renewal and reinstatement fees shall be waived for persons
who did not
renew while on active duty in the military and who file for renewal or
restoration
within one year after discharge from the service. A lapsed license may not
be
reinstated after 5 years have elapsed except upon passing an examination to
determine
fitness to have the license restored and by paying the required fees.
(c) All fees paid under this Act are nonrefundable.
(d) A production company licensed under this Act shall pay all applicable licensing fees for each lead pyrotechnic operator it employs or insures as an additional named insured on the production company's general liability insurance, as required under paragraph (1) of subsection (c-3) of Section 35. (e) An applicant who is 21 years of age or older seeking a religious exemption to the photograph requirement of this Section shall furnish with his or her application an approved copy of United States Department of the Treasury Internal Revenue Service Form 4029. Regardless of age, an applicant seeking a religious exemption to this photograph requirement shall submit fingerprints in a form and manner prescribed by the Office with his or her application in lieu of a photograph.
