National Wild Turkey Federation special license plate, application, fee.

301.3166. 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the

contrary, any member of the National Wild Turkey Federation, after an

annual payment of an emblem-use fee to the National Wild Turkey Federation,

may receive specialty personalized license plates for any vehicle the

member owns, either solely or jointly, other than an apportioned motor

vehicle or a commercial motor vehicle licensed in excess of eighteen

thousand pounds gross weight. The National Wild Turkey Federation hereby

authorizes the use of its official emblem to be affixed on specialty

personalized license plates within the plate area prescribed by the

director of revenue and as provided in this section. Any contribution to

the National Wild Turkey Federation derived from this section, except

reasonable administrative costs, shall be used solely for the purposes of

the National Wild Turkey Federation. Any member of the National Wild

Turkey Federation may annually apply for the use of the emblem.



2. Upon annual application and payment of a twenty-five dollar

emblem-use contribution to the National Wild Turkey Federation, the

National Wild Turkey Federation shall issue to the vehicle owner, without

further charge, an emblem-use authorization statement, which shall be

presented by the vehicle owner to the director of revenue at the time of

registration. Upon presentation of the annual statement and payment of a

fifteen dollar fee in addition to the regular registration fees, and

presentation of any documents which may be required by law, the director of

revenue shall issue to the vehicle owner a specialty personalized license

plate which shall bear the emblem of the National Wild Turkey Federation,

and the words "National Wild Turkey Federation" at the bottom of the plate,

in a manner prescribed by the director of revenue. Such license plates

shall be made with fully reflective material with a common color scheme and

design of the standard license plate, shall be clearly visible at night,

shall have a reflective white background in the area of the plate

configuration, and shall be aesthetically attractive, as prescribed by

section 301.130. Notwithstanding the provisions of section 301.144, no

additional fee shall be charged for the personalization of license plates

issued pursuant to this section.



3. A vehicle owner who was previously issued a plate with the

National Wild Turkey Federation's emblem authorized by this section, but

who does not provide an emblem-use authorization statement at a subsequent

time of registration, shall be issued a new plate which does not bear the

National Wild Turkey Federation's emblem, as otherwise provided by law.

The director of revenue shall make necessary rules and regulations for the

enforcement of this section, and shall design all necessary forms required

by this section.



4. Prior to the issuance of a National Wild Turkey Federation

specialty personalized plate authorized under this section the department

of revenue must be in receipt of an application, as prescribed by the

director, which shall be accompanied by a list of at least two hundred

potential applicants who plan to purchase the specialty personalized plate,

the proposed art design for the specialty license plate, and an application

fee, not to exceed five thousand dollars, to defray the department's cost

for issuing, developing, and programming the implementation of the

specialty plate. Once the plate design is approved, the director of

revenue shall not authorize the manufacture of the material to produce such

specialized license plates with the individual seal, logo, or emblem until

such time as the director has received two hundred applications, the

fifteen dollar specialty plate fee per application, and emblem use

statements, if applicable, and other required documents or fees for such

plates.



5. The specialty personalized plate shall not be redesigned unless

the organization pays the director in advance for all redesigned plate fees

for the plate established in this section. If a member chooses to replace

the specialty personalized plate for the new design the member must pay the

replacement fees prescribed in section 301.300 for the replacement of the

existing specialty personalized plate. All other applicable license plates

fees in accordance with this chapter shall be required.
