House Bill No. 629 proposes the establishment of a special prestige motor vehicle license plate known as the "Krewe of Athena." The bill mandates the Department of Public Safety and Corrections to create this license plate, contingent upon receiving a minimum of 1,000 applications. The design of the plate will be developed in collaboration with the Krewe of Athena Carnival Club, Inc., and must include the words "Krewe of Athena." The license plates will be available to any Louisiana citizen in the same manner as other motor vehicle license plates.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that an annual royalty fee of $25 will be collected for the issuance of the plate, alongside a handling fee of $3.50 to cover administrative costs. The funds generated from the royalty fees will be directed to the treasurer of the Krewe of Athena Carnival Club, Inc., specifically to provide scholarships for debutantes. The secretary of the Department of Public Safety and Corrections is also tasked with promulgating necessary rules and regulations to implement the provisions of this bill.
