DEQ invites your input on proposed permanent rule amendments to chapter 340 of the Oregon Administrative Rules.

DEQ proposes adopting rules under OAR 340-098 to revise the annual registration fees electronics manufacturers pay under Oregon’s electronic recycling program, Oregon E-Cycles, and to describe DEQ’s process for determining those fees.

These proposed rules would establish registration fees that will generate revenue to approximately match DEQ’s costs for administering the Oregon E-Cycles program. The proposal would establish:

• The revenue need to cover DEQ’s projected administrative costs

• A six-tier fee structure and process to distribute the revenue need among registered manufacturers based primarily on their market share.
