        89A.9  OPERATING PERMITS.
         1.  Operating permits shall be issued by the commissioner to the
      owner of every conveyance when the inspection report indicates
      compliance with the applicable provisions of this chapter.  However,
      a permit shall not be issued if the fees required by this chapter
      have not been paid.  Permits shall be issued within thirty days after
      filing of the inspection report required by section 89A.6, unless the
      time is extended for cause by the division.  A conveyance shall not
      be operated after the thirty days or after an extension granted by
      the commissioner has expired, unless an operating permit has been
      issued.
         2.  The operating permit shall indicate the type of equipment for
      which it is issued, and in the case of elevators shall state whether
      passenger or freight, and also shall state the contract load and
      speed for each conveyance.  The permit shall be posted conspicuously
      in the car of an elevator, or on or near a dumbwaiter, escalator,
      moving walk, or inclined or vertical wheelchair lift.
