§ 482.37905. Encouraging donation of human organs

1. Except as otherwise provided in this subsection, the Department, in cooperation

with the organizations in this State which assist in the donation and procurement

of human organs, shall design, prepare and issue license plates that encourage the

donation of human organs using any colors and designs that the Department deems appropriate. The Department shall not design, prepare or issue the license plates unless it receives

at least 250 applications for the issuance of those plates. 2. If the Department receives at least 250 applications for the issuance of license

plates that encourage the donation of human organs, the Department shall issue those

plates for a passenger car or light commercial vehicle upon application by a person

who is entitled to license plates pursuant to NRS 482.265 and who otherwise complies with the requirements for registration and licensing pursuant

to this chapter. A person may request that personalized prestige license plates issued pursuant to NRS 482.3667 be combined with license plates that encourage the donation of human organs if that

person pays the fees for the personalized prestige license plates in addition to the

fees for the license plates which encourage the donation of human organs pursuant

to subsections 3 and 4. 3. The fee for license plates to encourage the donation of human organs is $35, in

addition to all other applicable registration and license fees and governmental services

taxes. The license plates are renewable upon the payment of $10. 4. In addition to all other applicable registration and license fees and governmental

services taxes and the fee prescribed in subsection 3, a person who, on or after July

1, 2003: (a) Requests a set of license plates to encourage the donation of human organs must

pay for the initial issuance of the plates an additional fee of $25, to be deposited

pursuant to subsection 5; and (b) Renews a set of license plates to encourage the donation of human organs must

pay for each renewal of the plates an additional fee of $20, to be deposited pursuant

to subsection 5. 5. The Department shall deposit the fees collected pursuant to subsection 4 with the

State Treasurer for credit to the Anatomical Gift Account created in the State General

Fund by NRS 460.150 . 6. If, during a registration period, the holder of license plates issued pursuant

to the provisions of this section disposes of the vehicle to which the plates are

affixed, the holder shall: (a) Retain the plates and affix them to another vehicle that meets the requirements

of this section if the holder pays the fee for the transfer of the registration and

any registration fee or governmental services tax due pursuant to NRS 482.399 ; or (b) Within 30 days after removing the plates from the vehicle, return them to the

Department.
