Section 526.340 - Classification by State Forester(1) The State Forester may identify and classify forestland in a county, consistent with ORS 526.324 and 526.328, if: (a) The governing body of a county has failed to establish a forestland classification committee within two years after the State Forester made a request under ORS 526.310(1);(b) A forestland classification committee has failed to adopt and file a final classification pursuant to ORS 526.328 within the five-year period after the date the forestland classification committee was first established; or(c) A forestland classification committee has failed to act in a manner consistent with ORS 526.310, 526.320, 526.324 and 526.328.(2) Classifications by the State Forester have the same force and effect as though made by a forestland classification committee. However, classifications made by the State Forester cease to be effective if replaced by classifications made pursuant to ORS 526.320, 526.324 and 526.328.
