OAR 635-900-0020
Climate and Ocean Change Key Principles for Department Operations


(1) The Department will consider the risk from the impacts of climate and ocean change in the design of new facilities or structures and identify existing facilities or structures at high risk of failure due to the impacts of a changing climate and mitigate those risks over time.
(2) The Department will, to the extent practicable, operate equipment and facilities in such a way that they do not exacerbate the impacts of climate and ocean change on fish, wildlife and their habitats.
(3) The Department will operate its own equipment and facilities in such a way as to reduce carbon outputs and/or sequester carbon as directed in a carbon reduction plan.
