HB 2817: Relating to forestland closures.

HB 2817 eliminates the "permit closure" option from Oregon's forestland fire safety rules, meaning forestland access during fire danger will no longer require a separate permit from the forester. The bill removes language authorizing permit-based closures from three sections of Oregon law (477.535, 477.540, and 477.545), leaving only "regulated closures" (with posted rules) and "absolute closures" (total access ban). This directly affects people using forestland during fire danger periods, such as hikers, campers, and landowners, by simplifying access rules. The change streamlines forestland safety measures by removing one closure type, keeping focus on fire hazard levels rather than permit processes.

SB 905: Relating to the accessibility of information under a Healthy and Safe Schools Plan.

This bill amends Oregon's Healthy and Safe Schools Plan to streamline how schools share testing results and plan information with the public. It requires school districts, education service districts, and public charter schools to post test results on their websites and send electronic mail notifications to staff, students, and parents within 10 business days of receiving results. The law also mandates an annual statement that includes contact information for plan oversight, where copies of the plan are available, compliance certifications, and summaries of exposure reduction activities. Additionally, the bill removes the requirement to provide test results and annual statements in printed form at administrative headquarters, reducing administrative burden while maintaining digital accessibility.
