The permittee shall carry a copy of the completed form during the movement of the livestock. Not more than 10 days after the movement of the livestock is completed, the permittee shall submit a copy of the completed form to the Department. A livestock movement permit is not valid for:

              (1) The transportation of livestock across the boundaries of this State;

              (2) Proof or change of ownership;

              (3) Slaughter;
