OAR 635-059-0050: Allowable Blind Material for Boats

(1) Oregon Laws 2009, chapter 303, section 2(2) generally prohibits the launching of boats with aquatic species on or in the boat. However, that law also authorizes the Fish and Wildlife Commission to by rule allow the presence of certain aquatic species on or in a boat for activities including but not limited to hunting and photography. This rule implements that authority. (2) Aquatic plant species which are not listed in the “Oregon State Noxious Weed List” adopted by the Oregon Department of Agriculture in OAR 603-052-1200 may be used on or within a boat as blind material for the purpose of hunting or wildlife photography.
