OAR 635-140-0000
Purpose

These administrative rules establish the policy of the Commission for the protection and enhancement of Greater Sage-Grouse in Oregon. These rules incorporate and supplement portions of the “Greater Sage-Grouse Conservation Assessment and Strategy for Oregon” (2011) (“the Strategy”) which sets population and habitat management objectives, and defines and governs the Department’s core area approach to conservation of sage-grouse in Oregon. These rules also advance sage-grouse population and habitat protection through a mitigation hierarchy and the establishment of a mitigation standard for impacts from certain types of development actions in sage-grouse habitat. In the event of a conflict between the “Strategy” and these rules, these rules govern.
