Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:

Annual fee revised

SECTION 1. Section 56-3-4510 of the 1976 Code, as added by Act 156 of 1993, is amended to read:

"Section 56-3-4510. The department shall issue a special commemorative motor vehicle license plate for the purposes of the `Nongame Wildlife and Natural Areas Fund' provided in Section 12-7-2415. The annual fee for the commemorative license plate is twelve dollars for the first two years and five dollars for each year after that time, and these amounts must be placed in the fund. This annual fee is in addition to the regular motor vehicle registration fee set forth in Article 5, Chapter 7 of this title. The commemorative plate must be of the same size and general design of regular motor vehicle license plates and must be imprinted with the words `South Carolina Protects Endangered Species'. The plates must be issued or revalidated for an annual period which expires twelve months from the month they are issued."

Time effective

SECTION 2. This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
