Description
Description | House Bill 3681 is legislation aimed at reducing the regulatory timeline for permitting energy facilities in Oregon. The bill originally included provisions to ease the construction of high voltage transmission lines on farmland, treating them similarly to wineries, churches, and farm stands. However, these provisions were removed after concerns from the Oregon Farm Bureau about protecting farmland from non-agricultural development. The bill still includes provisions that narrow legal avenues for challenging proposed energy facilities and limits participation in contested case proceedings. |
