   16  participate in the pilot program and receive multiple temporary
   17  tags for company fleet vehicles.
   18         (b) To participate in the program a fleet company must have

   32         (g) Upon a finding by the department that a temporary tag
   33  has been misused by a fleet company under this program, the
   34  department may terminate the memorandum of understanding with
   35  the company, invalidate all temporary tags issued to the company
   36  under the program, and require such company to return any unused
   37  temporary tags.
   38         (h) This subsection is repealed on October 1, 2021, unless
   39  saved from repeal through reenactment by the Legislature.
