authorizing the division of motor vehicles to issue license plate decals for amateur radio operators.

HB 1354 authorizes New Hampshire's Division of Motor Vehicles to issue a special registration plate symbol for amateur radio operators. It allows applicants with a valid Federal Communications Commission amateur radio license to add this symbol to their license plates for a $85 fee (in addition to standard fees), applicable to passenger vehicles, recreational vehicles, and motorcycles. The fees collected will cover production/administrative costs, with remaining funds deposited into the highway fund for public safety communications infrastructure. This bill creates a new plate option without altering existing registration requirements.
