Notes of Decisions
The written notice of hearing required under this section must be sent by registered or certified mail. Campbell Ranch, Inc. v. Water Resources Dept., 28 Or App 243, 558 P2d 1295 (1977)
Notice of hearing, which did not refer explicitly to water supply in area being or about to be overdrawn, was adequate to advise petitioners of statutory provisions on which director would rely in making critical ground water area determination. Doherty v. Oregon Water Resources Director, 92 Or App 22, 758 P2d 865 (1988), as modified by 93 Or App 354, 762 P2d 330, aff’d 308 Or 543, 783 P2d 519 (1989)
Where Water Resources Director finds that public welfare, health and safety require corrective controls and director made findings of fact that satisfied statutory standards which director properly interpreted and applied, director’s findings and justification for order establishing Butter Creek Critical Ground Water Area were sufficient. Doherty v. Oregon Water Resources Director, 308 Or 543, 783 P2d 519 (1989)
