(1) The Oregon Health Authority may inspect chain restaurants for compliance with ORS 616.560, 616.565 and 616.570 and authority rules adopted under ORS 616.575. The person operating the chain restaurant shall, upon request of the authority, permit access to all parts of the restaurant and any records in the possession of the restaurant regarding nutritional values or menu items and provide menu item samples for nutritional value testing by the authority.
(2) If a chain restaurant violates a provision of ORS 616.560, 616.565 or 616.570 or a rule adopted under ORS 616.575, the authority shall provide the restaurant with written notice informing the restaurant of the violation and stating that the restaurant may avoid a civil penalty for the violation by curing the violation within 60 days. If the chain restaurant fails to cure the violation within 60 days, the authority may impose a civil penalty of not less than $250 and not more than $1,000 for the violation. For a continuing violation, each 30-day period that the violation continues after the preceding imposition of a civil penalty is a separate offense subject to a separate civil penalty. The authority is not required to provide the chain restaurant with an opportunity to cure the continuing violation before imposing a civil penalty for the continuing violation.
