OR HB2925

Establishes new timelines for ocean shore improvement permit applications: department must determine completeness within 30 days, provide 30-day public comment period, and issue permit decisions within 90 days of complete application

Creates a new "general authorization permit" category for routine ocean shore improvements that restore habitat, protect natural values, or cause only temporary/minimal impacts, allowing streamlined approval for similar low-impact projects

Authorizes emergency permits for ocean shore alterations in response to active erosion events or natural hazards threatening imminent irreparable harm to persons or existing infrastructure

Expands notification requirements to include affected landowners, adjacent property owners, federally recognized Indian tribes in Oregon, and relevant government agencies

Requires the department to adopt rules establishing permit fees based on administrative costs, applicant type, public benefit, construction value, ocean shore impact, and mitigation costs, replacing the previous fixed $400 fee structure
