This bill authorizes the issuance of special motor vehicle registration plates for active members and honorably separated former members of the United States Coast Guard, as well as their spouses and parents. The plates will feature the United States Coast Guard Seal and will include the vehicle registration number along with other prescribed markings. The fee for these special plates is set at $25, in addition to standard vehicle registration fees. The Chief Administrator of the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission is responsible for overseeing the issuance of these plates and may adopt rules for their use.

Additionally, the bill allows the Chief Administrator to retain a portion of the fees collected to cover the costs associated with implementing the special plate program. It also includes provisions for adjusting the fee if the average cost of producing the plates exceeds the established fee for two consecutive fiscal years, or for discontinuing the plates altogether. The act will take effect seven months after enactment, although anticipatory administrative actions may be taken prior to that date.
