Proposed OPRD Rules

Oregon Parks and Recreation Department, in accordance with the state's established rulemaking process, develops and maintains Chapter 736 of the Oregon Administrative Rules (OARs). All agency rulemaking notices are published on the first of each month by the Secretary of State in the Oregon Bulletin. The Oregon Parks and Recreation Commission must authorize the agency to proceed with rulemaking before rulemaking notices can be filed with the Secretary of State and rules opened for public comment. Once the public comment period has closed, the agency prepares the final rules text and submits to the commission for consideration and approval of final text prior to permanent adoption.
