From the WDFW Director
Today, Governor Gregoire signed the amended Discover Pass bill that results in key program changes, including two-vehicle transferability. As the bill had an emergency clause in it, it means that this goes into effect immediately – and all Discover Passes and Vehicle Access Passes can now be transferred between two cars!
Two-vehicle transferability was the number one issue expressed by stakeholder groups as we listened to them through the first months of implementation. For your own information and to respond to public inquiries, here are key Q/A that address transferability:
Q. Can I transfer one Discover Pass between two vehicles?
A. Yes, the annual Discover Pass and Vehicle Access Pass is now transferable between two vehicles. Please use ink to legibly write in a second license number, either in the license plate box or in a blank spot on the front of the pass.
To make wise use of funds, we are using up our existing stock of passes. In the future, passes will be printed with two lines for license numbers.
The pass is still only good for one vehicle at a time.
Q. What do I do if I already own a Discover Pass with only one license number on it?
A.It can now be used with two vehicles. Please use ink to legibly write in a second license number, either in the license plate box or in a blank spot on the front of the pass. The pass is still only good for one vehicle at a time.
The new law will also give State Parks, DFW and DNR the future option of selling gift passes, developing a family pass, and working with additional vendors. The agencies are currently considering how to implement these options – no changes at this time.
