A permit shall remain in effect until suspended or terminated as provided in this chapter. Any permit not exercised for a period of one year, inclusive of all periods of suspension, shall lapse and terminate.
No permit shall be sold, leased, assigned, or otherwise transferred or encumbered by the holder thereof without first having secured from the commission an order authorizing the transfer or encumbrance. The commission shall not authorize any transfer or encumbrance of a permit except pursuant to a finding made by the commission that the permit authorized to be transferred or encumbered has not lapsed or been terminated by nonexercise as provided in this section. Any sale, lease, assignment, or other transfer or encumbrance is void unless made in accordance with the order of the commission authorizing it.
