The number of general passenger vehicles will be the average of actual vehicles used in the licence year leading up to the date of renewal and the number of vehicles that Hallcon Crew Transport Ltd. anticipates using in the licence year ahead, rounded to the nearest number of general passenger vehicles. 4 If, throughout the year, Hallcon Crew Transport Inc. wishes to increase the number of general passenger vehicles based in Service 4 Hallcon must surrender the appropriate number of passenger directed identifiers that have been issued to it by the Registrar of Passenger Transportation. Licence Renewal: At licence renewal, the Registrar may, if other requirements are met, 1. issue up to 10 identifiers for use in Service 1, 2 and 3 as outlined in a. through c. under Maximum Fleet Size above. 2. issue the appropriate number of identifiers for Service 4 as outlined in d. under Maximum Fleet Size above. At licence renewal, Hallcon Crew Transport Ltd. must provide sufficient data to the Registrar to enable the Registrar to make the calculations necessary to determine the appropriate number of passenger directed vehicle identifiers to be issued to Hallcon Crew Transport Ltd. under Service 4. The Registrar may refuse to accept data provided by Hallcon Crew Transport Inc. when there is not enough detail for the Registrar to assess the number of passenger directed vehicles that may be operated under service 4. Despite the Registrar s acceptance of information at renewal time, the Registrar may require additional records or details from Hallcon Crew Transportation Inc. from time to time. Page 3 of 6
