Or. Admin. Code § 845-005-0332 - Tour Boat License

(1) ORS 471.182 allows the Commission to issue a Full On-Premises Sales license to a tour boat owner or operator. The statute also allows the Commission to waive a regulation for a tour boat operator or owner that would otherwise apply to a commercial establishment.

(2) The Commission may allow more than one tour boat to be operated under one Full On-Premises Sales license if:

(a) The licensee owns or leases the tour boats. The Commission does not license a tour boat operator's agent or representative;

(b) Each boat is a "tour boat" as defined by ORS 471.182(2)(c);

(c) The licensee notifies the Commission in writing at least 10 days before adding an additional tour boat to be operated under the license;

(d) The licensee meets all applicable licensing criteria.

(3) Requirements for boats that will be in Oregon waters 90 days or less in a calendar year:

(a) Law Orientation. The applicant or legal representative must attend an OLCC Law Orientation Class.

(b) Server Education. The applicant or designee, as defined in OAR 845-009-0075, must successfully complete an approved Alcohol Server Education Course.

(c) Service Permits. Except for those covered by subsection (3)(b), the Commission waives the service permit requirement for alcohol servers and for those who supervise the sale or service of alcohol. However, the applicant, licensee or Server Education designee must ensure that all alcohol servers, and those who supervise the sale of service of alcohol, read the OLCC brochure, What Every Volunteer Alcohol Server Needs to Know.

(d) Minor Postings. The Commission generally does not assign minor postings. However, the Commission instructs tour boat licensees that minors must not be in areas with drinking environments during the hours that drinking predominates.

(4) Requirements for boats that will be in Oregon waters over 90 days in a calendar year:

(a) Law Orientation. The applicant or legal representative must attend an OLCC Law Orientation Class.

(b) Server Education. The applicant or designee, as defined in OAR 845-009-0075, must successfully complete an approved Alcohol Server Education Course.

(c) Service Permits. The licensee, applicant, or Server Education designee must ensure that all employees engaged in the sale or service of alcohol, or supervising the sale or service of alcohol, have a service permit.

(d) Minor Postings. The Commission assigns minor postings according to the Minor Posting rule, OAR 845-006-0340.
