(1) A political subdivision required to make payments into the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund under ORS 657.505 may request the Director of the Employment Department to pay on behalf of the political subdivision such amounts as the political subdivision is required to pay into the fund. The employer may request the director to pay on its behalf such amounts as the political subdivision is required to pay into the fund. This request must be filed with the director by January 31 of any year in order to be effective July 1 of that year.

(2) A request shall continue until canceled but shall be for a period of not less than two years. A political subdivision may cancel its request by filing a written notice of its intention to cancel with the director by January 31 of the year in which the cancellation is to be effective. A cancellation shall be effective only on June 30 of a year. The political subdivision shall be responsible for paying into the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund any amounts paid out to claimants after the effective date of a cancellation and attributable to base period wages paid by the political subdivision during a period it was subject to the provisions of ORS 293.701, 294.725 to 294.755, 657.505 or this section.

Benefits paid to claimants during a period when the political subdivision is not a participant shall be reimbursed directly to the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund by the political subdivision.
