(3)(a) Upon receipt of an application under subsection (2) of this section, the youth authority shall cause an investigation to be made of the applicant and the applicant's home. The youth authority, in accordance with rules adopted under ORS 420.892, shall determine whether to issue a certificate of approval to the applicant. The certificate must be in the form prescribed by the youth authority and must state the name of the foster parent, the address of the premises to which the certificate applies and the maximum number of youth offenders to be maintained in the youth offender foster home at any one time. The certificate applies only to the premises designated in the certificate and a change of residence automatically terminates the certificate. The certificate is effective for one year.
