The State of Oregon works to improve the regulatory process

 

Oregon Governor John Kitzhaber's Regulatory and Permit Streamlining and Simplification Advisory Committee is requesting feedback regarding regulatory and permitting issues impacting public and private regulated entities.  The Committee is actively soliciting submission of specific examples through an online questionnaire at http://oregon.gov/COO/regulatory.  The committee believes this questionnaire is critical to moving the regulatory process in Oregon forward and to creating specific opportunities for action and improvement.  The questionnaire will be live until April 1.
