We hope you’ve ordered your new Friends of Coal license plates. Many are beginning to be seen as you travel the State since sales have been brisk. The Division of Motor Vehicles has placed its second bulk order of the first-time-ever-for-West Virginia digitized plate that has a black background and does not have raised letters/numbers. The DMV is also working on a motorcycle plate to be sure it has the same appearance as the larger car plate. They expect it will take a couple of months to finalize the design before production can begin.
It’s easy to order your new plate. All you have to do is click here for a copy of the application or download a copy by clicking here to go to the Friends of Coal webpage. Then complete the form for each vehicle and submit it with a $70 check payable to the West Virginia Coal Foundation; P.O. Box 3923; Charleston, WV 25339. Each vehicle needs a separate application but one check can be submitted for several applications. If you have questions or need more information call Sandi at the Association office, 304-342-4153 or email her at sdavison@wvcoal.com.
