[ODF_Private_Forests] July update of Forest Practices Act

[WEEKS Kevin]

ODF Private Forests News members:

The July 2008 update of ODF's Combined Administrative Rules & Forest Practices Act Rulebook -- what many have come to know as the "newsprint" version of the Oregon Forest Practices Act -- is available on the Oregon Department of Forestry web site.

The revised FPA rules can be downloaded from the ODF web site at:
http://egov.oregon.gov/ODF/PRIVATE_FORESTS/docs/fp/FPArulebk.pdf

The comprehensive publication takes into account the following amended, adopted or temporary rule changes from 2007:

* OAR 629-600-0100(39) Effective January 8, 2007.
* OAR 629-635-0200 Effective October 1, 2007.
* OAR 629-640-0110 Effective January 8, 2007.
* OAR 629-640-0105 Effective January 8, 2007.
* OAR 629-640-0210 Effective October 1, 2007. Applicable July 1, 2008.

OAR 629-623-0400 was amended and 629-623-0500 was suspended through the temporary rule process. The changes are effective July 18, 2008 through January 13, 2008, or until rescinded by permanent rule, whichever comes first.

OAR 629-635-0100 and 629-635-0110 were amended and became effective October 31, 2006, but the changes were inadvertently omitted in the January 2007 publication of the rules.

The following Oregon Revised Statutes were amended during the 2007 regular and 2008 special sessions of the Legislature:

* ORS 527.670, 527.687, and 527.755 Effective January 1, 2008.

* ORS 527.736 Effective March 3, 2008.
