Oregon Revised Statutes Forestry and Forest Products § 532.100

(1) The State Forester shall, each five-year period after October 1, 1951, notify the owners of all log marks or brands then of record in Oregon to renew them. Upon receipt of the fee provided for in ORS 532.110, the State Forester shall give a renewal certificate, which shall give the holder and owner the exclusive right to continue the use of the brand or mark within Oregon. If any owner of a brand or mark which is on record fails or refuses to pay the renewing fee within three months after notification, such brand shall become forfeited and be no longer carried on the records.

(2) On or after January 1, 1952, no person shall claim or own any log mark or brand which has not been renewed in accordance with the provisions of this section, and any failure to renew the log mark or brand as required by such provisions shall be deemed an abandonment of the same. Any other person shall be at liberty to adopt or use the abandoned mark or brand; but the other person shall not claim or use it until after it has been recorded in the other person's own name, in the manner provided in ORS 532.010 to 532.140. However, no abandoned or canceled brand may be reissued for a period of one year after such abandonment or cancellation, except to the previous owner or the assignee of the previous owner. In case of a dispute as to the right of any person to the use of such mark or brand, the State Forester shall determine which of the applicants is entitled to its use.
