A BILL

TO AMEND THE CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA, 1976, BY ADDING ARTICLE 108 TO CHAPTER 3, TITLE 56 SO AS TO PROVIDE THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR VEHICLES MAY ISSUE RACCOON HUNTERS LICENSE PLATES.

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

SECTION    1.    Chapter 3, Title 56 of the 1976 Code is amended by adding:

"Article 108

Raccoon Hunters License Plates

Section 56-3-10810.        (A)    The department may issue a 'Raccoon Hunters' special motor vehicle license plate for use on a private passenger motor vehicle or motorcycle registered in a person's name in this State.

(B)    The requirements for production and distribution of the plate are those set forth in Section 56-3-8100. The biennial fee for this plate is the regular registration fee set forth in Article 5, Chapter 3, and an additional thirty dollars. The portion of this additional fee that exceeds the department's cost of producing and administering the production and issuance of this license plate must be distributed to the South Carolina State Coon Hunters Association Youth Fund. The Department of Motor Vehicles shall imprint on the special license plates letters and numbers the department may determine.

(C)    A license plate issued pursuant to this article may be transferred to another vehicle of the same weight class owned by the same person upon application being made and being approved by the Department of Motor Vehicles. It is unlawful for a person to whom the plate has been issued to knowingly permit it to be displayed on any vehicle except the one authorized by the department."

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