(a) Any person interested in increasing awareness of
organ, eye and tissue donation and transplantation may apply for
and be issued distinctive license plates for any motor vehicle
that is not a commercial vehicle or multipurpose vehicle owned
or leased by that person upon registration of the vehicle. These
license plates shall be displayed upon the vehicle for which
they are issued.
(b) Application for, issuance and renewal of the organ,
eye and tissue donation license plates under this section shall
be subject to the same vehicle registration requirements and
fees as provided in this article in addition to the fee required
under W.S. 31-3-102(a)(viii). Application forms shall be
available at all county treasurer's offices and shall include
space on the application form to offer the option for the
applicant to donate one dollar ($1.00) or more to promote
awareness and education efforts for procurement of organ, eye
and tissue anatomical gifts. Any monetary donation received
under this subsection shall be forwarded to the state treasurer
to be deposited into a separate account to be used as provided
by W.S. 35-5-225. Accompanying each application form provided
under this subsection shall be information and appropriate
materials to register as an anatomical gift donor. The
department may prepare any special forms and promulgate any
rules necessary to carry out this section.
(c) The department shall arrange for production of the
license plates. The license plates shall bear a distinctive
symbol to raise awareness of organ, eye and tissue donation and
transplantation. The special license plates shall be the same
size and color as regular motor vehicle license plates and need
not include Arabic numerals for the county but shall be designed
so as to indicate the motor vehicle owner's support for organ,
eye and tissue donation and transplantation.
(d) Unless five hundred (500) sets of license plates are
issued under this section before December 31, 2031, the plates
authorized under this section shall be eliminated from
production and not later than January 15, 2033 the department
shall report the cessation of production to the joint
transportation, highways and military affairs interim committee.
