Section 629-033-0015 - Long Range Acquisition and Exchange Plans
(1) Each district of the Department shall prepare a long-range acquisition and exchange plan outlining the key parcels proposed for exchange or acquisition within that district. The acquisition and exchange plan shall describe how the plan aligns with ORS 530.010 and 530.040, and approved forest management plans, and furthers the objectives of achieving greatest permanent value as defined in OAR 629-035-0020. The long-range acquisition and exchange plan shall be reviewed by the Board of Forestry prior to approval by the State Forester. The State Forester shall review, update and approve long-range acquisition and exchange plans at least every ten years.
(2) Proposals for exchange or acquisition that are not part of an approved long-range acquisition and exchange plan may be submitted if an exchange or acquisition opportunity presents itself, and when in the opinion of the District Forester, that proposal meets the intent of OAR 629-033-0010. Such proposals shall be submitted through supervisory channels for review and approval by the State Forester prior to the Department entering into any written agreement with the proposed acquisition or exchange partner.
