OAR 736-040-0076
Clackamas River Scenic Waterway

(1)

Recreational River Area:

(a)

That segment of the Scenic Waterway extending from River Mill Dam downstream approximately 12 miles to Bakers Bridge at Carver is classified as a Recreational River Area;

(b)

The Recreational River Area will be administered consistent with the purposes of OAR 736-040-0040 (Classification of Scenic Waterways and Segments Thereof)(1)(c)(B). Within this area, new structures and improvements, mining operations and timber harvesting activities shall be permitted only when substantially screened from view from the river by topography or vegetation. If no such topographic or vegetative screening exists on a site, the structure or improvement may be permitted if vegetation is established which will provide substantial screening to the proposal in a reasonable time (for example, 2–3 years). The condition of “substantial vegetative screening” shall consist of an ample density and mixture of native evergreen and deciduous vegetation to totally obscure or allow only a highly filtered view of the proposed structures or improvements. Developments necessary for public outdoor recreation, as provided by public agencies, and resource protection may be visible from the river but must blend into the natural scene as much as possible.

(2)

All the Commission’s rules for scenic waterway management, OAR 736-040-0025 (Public Use of Scenic Waterways) through 736-040-0035 (Rules of Land Management), shall apply to the Clackamas River Scenic Waterway except where this section is more specific.
