Section 734-051-6040 - Procedure for Resolving Claims
(1) Parties may agree to participate in mediation consistent with the applicable provisions of ORS 36.180 to 36.210 at any time during the process of determining the appropriate remedies, but prior to the final order in any contested case under OAR 734-051-3110, as follows:
(a) During mediation the parties may discuss any appropriate remedies in reaching agreement.
(b) Such mediation may also occur during the post-decision collaborative discussion process under OAR 734-051-3090 when the denial or closure meets the requirements for consideration of a remedy set forth in OAR 734-051-6010(1).
(c) The property owner and the department also may enter into an agreement to collaborate if the department determines that the difference between the remedies offered and remedies claimed by the property owner is less than $30,000.
(2) The agreement to collaborate may provide for a mutually chosen mediator as defined in ORS 36.185 to 36.210 to review the information made available to each party as of that time and other information mutually agreed to by the parties.
(3) The value of the remedies offered and claimed will include a dollar value assigned by the department to any non-monetary remedies. Such review will result in a recommendation of remedies, subject to the condition that such remedies are neither less than the lower nor more than the greater of the offer and claim, in terms of assigned monetary value.
(4) The remedies recommended by the third party will be presented to the director or the director's designee. The director or designee shall take this recommendation into consideration in making subsequent offers of remedies.
