       James L. Edmunson and A. Sue Guthrie of Malagons&sMoore, Eugene, filed the petition on behalf of the petitioner on review.

       No appearance contra.

       Prior report: 91 Or.App. 374, 755 P.2d 146.

       MEMORANDUM OPINION.

       The petition for review is allowed. Because the Court of Appeals decided this case after the effective date of the 1987 amendment to ORS 656.236(2), that statute bars the cost award. Fromme v. Fred Meyer, Inc., 306 Or. 558, 761 P.2d 515 (1988). The order of the Court of Appeals allowing costs is reversed.
