OAR 660-031-0030: Effect of a Determination of Noncompliance or Incompatibility

In accordance with OAR 660-031-0020 when a state agency or local government determines that a proposed activity or use is not in compliance with an applicable Statewide Planning Goal or not compatible with the Acknowledged Comprehensive Plan, the state agency shall deny the state permit and cite the inconsistency as the basis for denial. State agencies may defer approval or conditionally approve a permit when compliance with a Statewide Planning Goal or the Acknowledged Comprehensive Plan requires an action that can only be taken by the affected local government.
