user: Good evening. Can i get information about gold plates, please?[NEWLINE]agent: Well, you can. I can say to you that DMV has issuing those plates since April 1, 2010. Also, you must know that DMV no longer issues those blue and white plates.[NEWLINE][BOUNDARY][NEWLINE]user: I see. So, in case i receive a new Golden ones, what do i do with those old blue and white ones?[NEWLINE]agent: You can send or get them to a local recycling facility. Visit the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation to see a list of such facilities.[NEWLINE]user: Is there any security measure i must take regarding the plates disposal?[NEWLINE]agent: In fact, there are. You must make sure to separate your plates and put them in the recycle bin with some time between them, such as two weeks time.[NEWLINE][BOUNDARY][NEWLINE]user: Oh, right, quite obvious really. Is receiving these plates means that i'll get a new plate number?[NEWLINE]agent: That's correct, but you can retain your old plate number under certain conditions. Does your vehicle has its registration under one of the following classes: Passenger, commercial motorcycle or trailer?[NEWLINE]user: Oh yeah, it has its registration under passenger.[NEWLINE]agent: Good. Then you can keep the same plate number from your current plates on your new Empire Gold plates, just paying a $2.00 additional fee.[NEWLINE][BOUNDARY][NEWLINE]user: Umm, o.k, that doesn't seems too much. I know i should have asked this before but, what do i need to get those plates?
