Current water quality permit fees

The Environmental Quality Commission adopted rules to increase water quality permit, license and certification fees by up to 3% in 2024 for fiscal year 2025, as provided in ORS 468B.051. The amount of the increase may not exceed the anticipated increase in the cost of administering the program or 3%, whichever is lower.

In addition to the 3% fee increase, the Onsite Septic Program included a one-time fee increase of approximately 14% to fund resource enhancements authorized by the 2023 Legislature in Policy Option Package 123.
DEQ will begin receiving the increased fee revenue in August 2024 for the Onsite program and in November 2024 for all other programs.
