Or. Admin. Code § 250-010-0065 - County Use Permit Programs
(1) This rule establishes standards for
review of county use permit programs as authorized by ORS 830.172(2).
(2) Applicability. The Board will only
consider use permit programs from counties bordering a state that allows
imposition of a boat use permit fee.
(3) Use of funds. All funds collected by a
county from out-of-state residents for a boat use permit shall be dedicated to
the maintenance, improvement and/or development of boating facilities and
services for boating recreation on waters within the county. The enforcement of
boating laws, rules, and use permits is an allowable use of county boat use
permit revenues.
(4) Amount of fee.
Fees should be commensurate with those fees charged to Oregon residents
visiting states with boat use permits. Maximum fees shall not exceed the
following:
(a) Daily permit: $1 per day, 4
days ($4) maximum;
(b) Annual
permits: Less than 12 feet: $5; 12 feet and over: $5 plus $2 for each foot over
12;
(c) A vendor fee/commission not
to exceed $2 is allowable.
(5) Administration. The proposed ordinance
shall also prescribe where permits will be available, proper display of
permits, exemptions to permits as set forth in ORS 830.172, permit expiration,
and transferability of permits.
(6)
Enforcement. The county ordinance shall contain a penalty section for
violations, and shall state that county sheriffs and other peace officers are
authorized to enforce the provisions of the use permit system.
(7) The permit system shall clearly identify
that Oregon residents with current Oregon registrations are exempt from the
county use permit. Manually propelled vessels are also exempt. The permit
system shall exempt the Snake River and its reservoirs where such waters form a
common border with the State of Idaho, provided that Idaho provides reciprocity
on these waters and exempts Oregon vessels on those common waters.
(8) The county permit system ordinance shall
provide reciprocity with other Oregon counties that require out-of-state boat
use permits.
