<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">The Oregon Health Authority, Public Health Division, is proposing permanent amendments to chapter 333, division 15, pertaining to the Oregon Indoor Clean Air Act (ICAA). In this
rulemaking, the Oregon Health Authority (Authority) is removing the language defining “enclosed area” from rule to ensure the rules are aligned with the newly revised Oregon Indoor Clean Air Act (ICAA) statute. The definition in rule will refer to the meaning
given in ORS 433.835, ICAA statute. SB 235 (Oregon Laws 2017, chapter 732) was signed by the Governor in August 2017 and the definition of “enclosed area” was added to ICAA statute ORS 433.835.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
