(a)

Contracting with private nurseries to grow forest tree seedlings;

(b)

Allocating all or part of forest tree seedling production on behalf of the forester and the board to a cooperative of private growers under ORS 526.237 (Acquisition of forest tree seedlings); and

(c)

Leasing or otherwise making state nursery property available for operation by private growers of forest tree seedlings.

(4)

All revenues derived from the selling of nursery stock and otherwise secured forest tree seedlings shall be credited to the State Forestry Department Account and deposited in the State Forest Nursery Subaccount established in ORS 526.060 (State Forestry Department Account).
