Wyoming Statutes Title 31. Motor Vehicles § 31-2-233. Organ, eye and tissue donation license plates

(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.
