Or. Admin. R. 690-325-0010
The rules in OAR chapter 690, division 325 establish requirements and procedures to implement assignments under ORS 537.225 to 537.227. Except for OAR 690-325-0100, these rules shall apply to applications for assignments submitted on or after April 1, 2026. Applications for assignments submitted before this date shall be subject to the rules in effect at the time of submittal. The applicability of OAR 690-325-0100 is subject to and governed by OAR chapter 690, division 2. These rules shall be used by the Department to evaluate an application by a landowner of record - holding a water right permit for irrigation, nursery, temperature control, stock watering or agricultural water use - to assign all or part of the water right permit and to issue a replacement water right permit to reflect an assignment from the current water right permit holder to one or more additional water right permit holders. These rules do not replace OAR chapter 690-320-0060, which governs assignments under ORS 537.220 and 537.635.
