The rules implement the statutory requirement for homeowners to remove and destroy any uncertified woodstove at the time of home sale and to notify DEQ. The rules subject a broader range of home and commercial heating devices (including outdoor wood-fired boilers and other uncontrolled wood burning devices) to certification requirements. Unless these heating devices meet the certification requirements, they will not be allowed to be sold in Oregon. The rules also update DEQ rules for implementing a wood burning curtailment program in a nonattainment area if needed. These rules will also be submitted to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as a revision to the Oregon State Implementation Plan under OAR 340-200-0040.
