Or. Admin. Code § 340-090-0750 - Program plan amendments and producer responsibility organization fees
(1) A producer
responsibility organization's routine, annual updating of base fee rate amounts
to align with the most recent supply information received from member producers
or updated material cost allocations from related studies does not constitute a
method change and will not require a program plan amendment.
(2) Alternate approaches to determining
membership fees, including changes to the overall criteria for and magnitude of
graduated fee adjustments, require a program plan amendment. Changes to the fee
adjustments granted to individual producers will not require a program plan
amendment.
(3) A producer
responsibility organization may request provisional approval of a plan
amendment if it needs to implement a fee structure method change rapidly due to
financial urgency. If such a request is made, DEQ will respond within 30 days.
If provisional approval is granted, the producer responsibility organization
may implement the fee schedule method change on a provisional basis while the
process for final approval, pursuant to ORS
459A.878, is ongoing. If the
plan amendment is ultimately not approved, the producer responsibility
organization must correct its member accounts to reverse the provisional
change.
