Rulemaking

Want to leave a comment on our new rules? Click here


Oregon Administrative Rules (OARs) determine how the Board of Accountancy and other state agencies operate, including how they interpret and implement state laws. Administrative rules can also describe agency practices and policies.

Rules may be adopted, amended, repealed, suspended, or renumbered through a process known as rulemaking. Our rulemaking process offers several opportunities for people and organizations to provide feedback on a proposed rule:

  • A Rulemaking Advisory Committee (RAC) representing those who may have an interest in the rule helps shape rule language
  • Oregonians are invited to weigh in on the rule and may attend RAC meetings, provide written comments, or testify during a public hearing
