(A) Before a permit is issued by the Health Officer for the collection and transportation of refuse, all equipment and vehicles to be used shall be inspected by the Health Officer. All equipment and vehicles used to transport garbage to a disposal site shall be covered, watertight and cleaned as may be necessary to prevent nuisances and health hazards and all vehicles used for inert waste material shall be so constructed and in such condition as to prevent loss of the material on the public highways.
(B) A permit fee of $1 shall be paid to the County Treasurer for each vehicle, or other piece of equipment used for the transportation or hauling of refuse. No fee shall be charged for vehicles, or other pieces of equipment operated by the Board of Commissioners, any municipality located in the county, the State of Indiana, or by any State University.
(C) The permit issued by the County Health Officer shall be carried in plain view in the vehicle or other piece of equipment which it belongs whenever such vehicle or piece of equipment is being used for the collection or transportation of refuse.
