Current through Register Vol. 39, No. 2, July 15, 2024
(a) No promoter
				shall be given tentative approval for or issued a permit if such person has an
				unpaid fine or any delinquent indebtedness outstanding to the
				Division.
(b) Each application for
				a permit shall be in writing, verified by the applicant, complete, and be
				accompanied by the required fee. The application for permit shall be on file
				with the Division at least 30 calendar days prior to the scheduled program of
				matches.
(c) Upon receipt of the
				application for permit, the Division representative shall review the
				application and, if the application is in compliance with the requirements of
				G.S. 143, Article 68 and the rules set forth in this Chapter, he shall give
				tentative approval to the promoter for the proposed date of the program. If the
				Division representative determines that the application for permit is not in
				compliance with Article 68 or the rules as set forth in this Chapter, he shall
				immediately advise the promoter that the application for permit has been
				disapproved and shall state the reasons that the application is not in
				compliance. The Division representative shall deny an application for permit if
				another program of matches has previously been scheduled for the same date, and
				he has determined that adequate staff would not be available to properly
				supervise both programs of matches.
(d) The promoter shall provide the proposed
				fight card not later than seven calendar days prior to the proposed date of the
				program. The promoter may advise the Division representative verbally of the
				names of the proposed contestants. The Division representative shall review the
				proposed fight card and, if he determines that all the proposed matches meet
				the requirements of Article 68, and the rules set forth in this Chapter, he
				shall approve the proposed fight card. If the Division representative
				determines that the proposed fight card is not in compliance with Article 68 or
				the rules set forth in this Chapter, he shall not approve the proposed fight
				card and shall immediately advise the promoter that the proposed fight card has
				been disapproved and the reasons for the disapproval.
(e) All other pre-match requirements of the
				promoter described in Article 68 and the rules set forth in this Chapter shall
				be accomplished before final approval is given and the permit issued. The final
				approval of the permit shall not be given unless the Division representative
				has observed that all requirements related to facilities, equipment, personnel,
				licensing and approvals, and procurement of insurance have been met by the
				promoter. Immediately upon determining that the promoter has met all the
				requirements as set forth in this Chapter, the Division representative shall
				issue the permit. If the Division representative determines that the promoter
				is not in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Rule, the Division
				representative shall rescind the tentative approval of the permit and the
				program of matches shall be canceled. If the program of matches is canceled,
				all tickets shall be refunded in accordance with the refund provisions set
				forth in the rules in this Chapter.
(f) A permit is only valid for the program of
				matches for which it was issued. A new permit is required for each program of
				matches. If, after the payment of the permit fee to the Division a program of
				matches is canceled for any reason, whether by the promoter or the Division,
				the permit fee shall not be refunded, provided however, that the fee shall be
				refunded if the cancellation by the Division was the result of an error made by
				the Division and which was through no fault of the promoter.
(g) A non-refundable permit fee shall be
				submitted with the application for permit and shall be based on the seating
				capacity of the premises to be utilized to present the program of matches. The
				following fee structure shall be utilized to determine the permit fee:
(1) Seating capacity is less than
				2000--Fee=$150.00
(2) Seating
				capacity is 2000 or more but no greater than 5000--Fee=$300.00
(3) Seating capacity exceeds
				5000--Fee=$$450.00
