Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 1 costs, 1 mixed.

Higher certificate fees for vehicle dismantlers

Oregon motor vehicle dismantlers pay $1,000 to get or renew a certificate for one location, up from $500. Each supplemental certificate for an added location under the same name costs $1,000. Expanding a site, moving, or adding a location under the same certificate requires a supplemental certificate and local permission. At supplemental renewal, the Department of Transportation can waive local approval of the applicant’s suitability. The fees apply to certificates issued or renewed on or after the law’s effective date, not specified in the provided text.

Longer certificates, renewal rules for vehicle dismantlers

Oregon motor vehicle dismantler certificates last two years instead of one, reducing renewal paperwork. Renewals require the fee, a completed application, local government approval, and a current bond meeting state requirements. The Department of Transportation can waive local approval of the applicant’s suitability. Valid certificate holders avoid the specified dismantling prohibitions and penalties when operating at their approved location. The department can issue identification cards for owners and authorized employees and set certificate and card rules. The changes apply to certificates issued or renewed on or after the law’s effective date, not specified in the provided text.
