SECTION 1. DHS 137.03 (3) is amended to read:

The department shall forward the individual's authorization to the department of transportation, or the individual may write to the Wisconsin department of transportation. The department of transportation's entry of a statement or symbol in its database indicating that the individual has made an anatomical gift shall constitute a record of gift under s. 157.06 (2) (t), Stats.
DHS 137.04 (2) (b) An individual under 15 and one-half years of age, who indicates a desire to make an anatomical gift when applying for a Wisconsin driver's license or identification card, or who has a driver's license or identification card and communicates in writing to the department of transportation a desire to make an anatomical gift or indicates a desire to make an anatomical gift by completing the donor form on the registry website, has stated an intent to make an anatomical gift.
