Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

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

More customers can use nonretail fuel pumps

Licensed Oregon nonretail fuel facilities can let more customers use card- or key-operated pumps for Class 1 flammable liquids. The law removes the former 900-gallon purchase minimum and organization, employment, and vehicle-use restrictions. Customers receive safety training materials instead of having to meet the former training requirements. Facilities still need a current State Fire Marshal license and a written agreement with each customer.

Rural customers gain more fuel-buying options

Nonretail fuel facilities in counties legally defined as rural Oregon can sell Class 1 flammable liquids to the public. They do not need a separate retail-dispensing license. Facilities can also let other people use dispensing devices, including automated-payment and self-service devices. They must notify the State Fire Marshal at least 90 days before retail sales begin. These sales remain subject to the state's fuel-dispensing requirements in ORS 480.340.

Fuel businesses pay and renew less often

Nonretail fuel licenses last three years instead of one; each facility submits required application materials and pays $300 to apply. Renewal costs $900 every three years instead of $300 annually. Licensees also pay $30 per customer agreement every three years instead of $10 annually; both annualized fees stay unchanged. The State Fire Marshal audits at least 5% of nonretail accounts every three years instead of annually. License changes apply to licenses issued or renewed beginning the 91st day after adjournment of Oregon's 2025 regular legislative session.
