Bill > SB366

This bill modifies Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) 632.715 to allow egg producers to sell and deliver their own eggs directly to restaurants without obtaining an egg handler's license, which was previously required. Specifically, the bill adds restaurants (as defined in ORS 624.010) to the list of entities to which a producer can sell eggs without needing a license, alongside individual consumers. An egg handler's license is typically required for selling or distributing eggs to consumers or retailers, but this amendment creates an additional exemption for producers selling their own eggs directly to restaurants. The rest of the existing law remains unchanged, including provisions about license display, expiration, and the State Department of Agriculture's ability to refuse, suspend, or revoke licenses for violations of egg handling regulations. This modification likely aims to reduce regulatory burden on small-scale egg producers by simplifying the process of selling eggs to local restaurants.
