Section 860-030-0020 - Certain Energy Conservation Measures Excluded from Financing

Universal Citation: OR Admin Rules 860-030-0020

Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 9, September 1, 2024

Energy conservation measures for any of the following building and improvement activities shall not be financed under an energy utility's residential energy conservation program adopted pursuant to ORS 469.631 through 469.645:

(1) Construction of a new dwelling; or

(2) Construction which increases or changes the living space in a dwelling being remodeled, added to, or otherwise substantially altered.

(3) When a dwelling or property owner proposes to build a new dwelling, remodel, or otherwise alter an existing dwelling, the Uniform Building Code (UBC) or local equivalent code must be complied with. Because weatherization programs are designed to be an incentive encouraging people to voluntarily weatherize, it would not be in the public interest to spend this money on loans or grants for measures which otherwise are required by state or local law.
