Schools can buy banned lamps through 2029

Oregon school districts can buy lamps for use in school buildings without following the state ban in ORS 459.485. This applies only when the district buys the lamp for use in school buildings. On January 2, 2030, this exemption ends. After that date, ORS 459.485 applies to those school purchases again.
