Subject: New federal regulations implementing the Americans
with Disabilities Act of 1990 (42 U.S.C. 12181) (ADA) expand the types of
mobility devices that may be used for access. This broadening of the range of
devices that may now be used requires changes to OAR 736, division 10, to allow
such devices for the purposes of ADA access. The new ADA regulations also
define “Service Animal” which is being incorporated into division 10 rules, and
require that miniature horses be allowed in specific facilities subject to
certain considerations.
Rules prohibiting
pets in yurts and cabins are being amended to allow pets in those facilities
that have been designated as pet friendly.
The rule on
campsite occupancy is being amended to clarify that a site must be occupied the
first night after any belongings are left in the site and must remain occupied
each night during the entire length of stay.
A typo has also
been corrected where the word chapter was incorrectly capitalized.

Reservations

a reservation.
