(1) Regulated closures require entrants into designated areas to comply with the requirements set forth in the proclamation under ORS 477.535 (Forester may proclaim forestland subject to restricted uses), which requirements in the judgment of the forester are necessary to prevent danger to life, forest resources or property.
(2) Permit closures make the area subject to entry only through permit issued by the forester. The permit shall contain requirements which in the judgment of the forester are necessary to prevent danger to life, forest resources or property. The forester may, during periods of fire hazard conditions, refuse, suspend, revoke or restrict such permits.
(3) Absolute closures restrict the areas to all forms of use and shall be designated only during periods of extreme fire hazard conditions endangering life, forest resources or property. [Formerly 477.158; 1967 c.429 §47; 1969 c.204 §6; 1997 c.274 §16]
