The Motor Carrier Education Program provides motor carriers
with basic information required to conduct motor carrier operations in Oregon.
The Department administers the program and third party agents provide the
education. In addition to the provisions of ORS
825.402, the following apply to
the Motor Carrier Education Program:
(1) A motor carrier is "domiciled" in Oregon
if the motor carrier has an established place of business in Oregon as
specified on an application for authority.
(2) Motor Carriers applying for authority for
the first time or as required by ORS
825.402(3)
shall pay a non-refundable $40 ODOT Administrative fee to defray the cost of
the program.
(3) In addition to the
ODOT nonrefundable administrative fee, a motor carrier shall be responsible for
payment of fees assessed by the third party agent appointed by the department
to provide the Motor Carrier Education Program training.
(4) As used in ORS
825.402 and OAR
740-035-0200 through
740-035-0260, "Participate in
the program" means that a person having a substantial interest or control,
directly or indirectly, in or over the operations conducted or to be conducted
under the certificate or permit issued to the motor carrier must participate in
the Motor Carrier Education Program. Under these rules, a motor carrier is not
required to participate in the Motor Carrier Education Program more than one
time except when motor carriers are required to participate additional times
under ORS
825.402
(3).
(5) The Department will conduct unscheduled
training audits of third party agents to ensure compliance with the education
curriculum and provisions of any contract or agreement entered into with the
department.
