Oregon Revised Statutes Title 26A. Economic Development § 285C.555

By rule and after hearing, the Director of the Oregon Business Development Department may adopt a schedule of reasonable fees that the Oregon Business Development Department may require of applicants for preliminary or final certification under ORS 285C.540 to 285C.559. Before the adoption or revision of the fees, the department shall estimate the total cost of the program to the department. The fees shall be used to recover the anticipated cost of filing, investigating, granting and rejecting applications for certification and shall be designed not to exceed the total cost estimated by the department. Any excess fees shall be held by the department and shall be used by the department to reduce any future fee increases. The fee may vary according to the size and complexity of the facility. The fee is not considered part of the cost of the facility to be certified.
