(b)

Wine country registration plates for a vehicle operated by a member of the Oregon Wine Board in discharging the board’s duties if requested to do so by the board.

(2)

The registration period for a vehicle described under this section shall be the same as the regular registration period for the type of vehicle registered.

The fee for registration or renewal of a regular series registration plate for a vehicle under subsection (1)(a) of this section is the fee established under ORS 803.420 for registration or renewal of a state-owned vehicle registered under this section.

(b)

The fee for registration or renewal of a wine country registration plate for a vehicle under subsection (1)(b) of this section is the fee established under ORS 803.420 for that type of vehicle, and not for renewal of a state-owned vehicle registered under this section.
