New Temporary Restaurant Rules  

The Oregon Health Authority, Public Health Division has amended the administrative rules in Chapter 333, Divisions 12 and 157. The rules implement the provisions of House Bill 2868, passed during the 2011 Oregon Legislative Session, which changes the licensing model for temporary restaurant facilities. House Bill 2868 was a collaborative effort of the temporary restaurant industry and state and local regulatory officials to improve the licensing model by reducing the costs of operating temporary restaurants by industry but still allowing regulatory officials to assure adequate public health protection.

View the new documents on our Temporary Restaurant Page.
