SALEM, Oregon— Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) is seeking two volunteers to serve on the ATV Advisory Committee and ATV Grant Subcommittee starting Jan. 1, 2026.

 

The openings are four-year terms and include one representative for Class II (4wd/sand rails) and one representative for Class III (dirt bikes).

 

The seventeen-member ATV Committee meets once or twice a year. Duties include reviewing accidents and fatalities resulting from ATV recreation; reviewing changes to statutory vehicle classifications as necessary for safety considerations; reviewing safety features of all classes of ATVs; and recommending appropriate safety requirements to protect child and adult ATV operators.

The Grant Subcommittee holds up to four public meetings per year that may be conducted either in-person or remotely. Computer access and experience is mandatory.

Ideal candidates representing the interest of ATV trail users can live anywhere in Oregon with experience in at least one of the following areas:

  • Land management
  • Recreation planning
  • Trail planning or design
  • Recreation related volunteerism, or
  • A trail enthusiast who is uniquely qualified to evaluate statewide project proposals through other experience and involvement.

Strong candidates may also demonstrate an awareness of statewide recreational trail needs, other broad recreational issues and the importance of providing accessible recreational opportunities.
