Or. Admin. Code § 635-500-4000 - Applicability

OAR 635-500-4000 through 635-500-4100 apply to the mid-coast small ocean tributary streams. The small ocean tributary basins along the mid-coast have a combined size of about 371 square miles. Important small ocean tributary streams include Beaver, Big (Lincoln County), Cummins, Bob, Tenmile, Rock, Big (Lane County) and Cape creeks. Together, they have about 574 miles of stream. About one-half of the land in the basins of tributary streams is in private ownership. The U.S. Forest Service is also a major landowner. The Bureau of Land Management has small holdings in the basin. The dominant land use in the Oregon mid-coast is forestry. Areas managed as forest contain, or are used to produce coniferous and deciduous trees. Rural wood lots, land regenerating from cuts and burns, as well as mixed and pure stands of merchantable or non-merchantable timber are included.
