Be It Enacted by the People of the State of Oregon:
SECTION 1. ORS 285B.551 is amended to read:
285B.551. (1) Pursuant to ORS 286A.560 to 286A.585, at the request of the Oregon Department
of Administrative Services, after the department consults with the Oregon Business Development
Department, the State Treasurer is authorized to issue lottery bonds:
(a) To provide financial and other assistance, including but not limited to loans and grants, to
municipalities, ports and other persons and entities in accordance with the laws governing use of
moneys in the Special Public Works Fund created by ORS 285B.455, the Water Fund created by ORS
285B.563, the Safe Drinking Water Revolving Loan Fund created by ORS 285A.213, the Oregon Port
Revolving Fund created by ORS 285A.708, the Brownfields Redevelopment Fund created by ORS
285A.188, the Oregon Business Development Fund created by ORS 285B.092 and the Marine Navi-
gation Improvement Fund created by ORS 777.267.
(b) To fund Oregon’s share of the costs of the Columbia River channel deepening project.
(c) To fund Oregon’s share of the costs of studies and ecosystem restoration projects in the
lower Columbia River estuary designed to improve habitat for listed endangered or threatened spe-
cies of Columbia River anadromous salmonids.
(2) The use of lottery bond proceeds is authorized based on the following findings:
(a) The financial and other assistance to municipalities, ports and other persons and entities
will assist in the establishment and expansion of businesses in Oregon and in the construction, im-
provement and expansion of infrastructure, community and port facilities and other facilities that
comprise the physical foundation for industrial and commercial activity and provide the basic
framework for continued and expanded economic opportunities and quality communities throughout
Oregon.
(b) The Columbia River channel deepening project is necessary to allow newer, larger
steamships access to Oregon and Washington deep draft ports. A deeper shipping channel will allow
the Columbia River to continue as a world leader in agricultural exports and as a key trade corridor
for farms and businesses throughout Oregon and the region.
(c) Such financial and other assistance to municipalities, ports and other persons and entities
and the deepening of the Columbia River channel will therefore promote economic development

other assistance to municipalities, ports and other persons and entities and to pay a portion of the
costs of deepening the Columbia River channel is an authorized use of state lottery funds under

cies of Columbia River anadromous salmonids could be improved through ecosystem restoration

projects are authorized uses of state lottery funds.

this section for financial and other assistance to municipalities, ports and other persons and entities
