ATV PROGRAM OVERVIEW
The intent of the ATV grant program is to provide
opportunities for off-highway vehicle recreation.
The ATV grant program is designed to supplement
projects and is not intended to be the sole source of
funding for ATV projects. Funds are allocated through
the ATV grant program to eligible sponsors, which
include managers of publicly and privately held land,
registered OHV clubs, non-profit organizations, and law
enforcement agencies.
ATV ACCOUNT ALLOCATION COMMITTEE (AAC)
The seven voting and four non-voting members on the
ATV-AAC represent Oregon OHV users and serves as
an advisory committee to OPRD for the purpose of
recommending OHV grant funding. The committee
members represent all three classes of ATV vehicles.
ATV FUNDING
The ATV sticker you purchase for your ATV is used
to help provide you with areas to ride. Funding
comes solely from ATV users and unrefunded fuel
taxes from ATV users.
TYPES OF PROJECTS
Development: New trail construction, bridges, trail
signs, restrooms, shower facilities (Siltcoos campground
ODNRA) and many campgrounds and staging areas
such as Browns Camp, Bull Run (ODNRA), and Mt.
Baber were funded with ATV dollars.
Law Enforcement: Officers are funded to help ensure
that your riding trip is safe and enjoyable. Not only do
they make sure that riders play by the rules, but they
help deter illegal activities in OHV areas, such as theft,
vandalism and drug activity. Most of the officers you
see can provide you with up-to-date area information
or a map.
Helmet
Operators of Class I and III ATVs that are younger
than 18 must wear a Department of Transportation
approved helmet.
Mufflers
In Oregon, they must be maintained at 99 decibels.
Lower levels are required at Sand Lake (97 dB) and the
Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area (93 dB).
Lights
Must be used in limited visibility, such as before
sunrise, after sunset, or when you cannot see clearly
ahead for 100 feet.
Flags
Displayed nine feet above ground are required
when riding on sand (Sand Lake, Oregon Dunes,
Christmas Valley).
Brakes
Working brakes are required.
Windshield Wipers
Are required on any vehicle equipped with a windshield.
Spark Arrester
US Forest Service approved spark arrester for Class I or
Class II ATVs.
Check with the land manager in the areas you plan to
ride on. They may also have additional requirements.
ATV Rules
Alcohol and Drugs
You cannot operate an ATV while under the influence
of alcohol or drugs.
Animals
It is against the law to run down, harass, chase or
annoy any game or domestic animal or bird while
operating an ATV.
Crossing Highways
You may cross a highway 100 feet away from intersections, at a 90 degree angle, and after making a complete
stop. You must yield right-of-way to all other traffic.
Crossing Railroad Tracks
You may cross railroad tracks only at established crossings.
Fire Restrictions
Make sure you check current fire restrictions. Areas may
restrict riding to roads only or close the entire area to
ATV use during fire season. Use care with campfires.
During fire season campfires may be restricted to campgrounds only or even banned all together. Never leave
a fire unattended. Most areas require that passenger
vehicles carry a shovel and fire extinguisher or water.
Dangerous Operation
You must operate your ATV safely at all times.
You cannot ride in a way that endangers other
people or property.
Enforcement
Most OHV riding areas employ law enforcement officers
to patrol areas. State police, sheriff deputies, USFS and
BLM rangers have authority to issue citations and make
arrests. Citations may be issued to parents of children
under 18 years of age. Make sure you have a fun trip
and obey the rules.
Environment
You are not to expose the underlying soil or vegetation,
or injure, damage or destroy trees or growing crops.
Firearms and Bows
You cannot operate an ATV with a loaded firearm in
your possession. The same applies to a bow and
arrow, unless all arrows are in a quiver.
Hunting
You may not hunt from an ATV. You may use the
ATV for transportation but you must stay on trails,
keep all firearms unloaded, and when shooting game,
be completely off of the ATV.
Out-of-State ATVs
Permits are available from OPRD for a visitor from a
state that does not have an ATV registration law. The
permit is $10.
Property Damage Responsibilities
The operator or owner (if the machine was used with
the owner’s permission) is liable for three times the
amount of damage caused to trees, shrubs, growing
crops, or other property injured as a result of travel by
an ATV or snowmobile over the property involved.
Speed
You must travel at a speed that is reasonable for the
existing trail, traffic and weather conditions, and obey
all posted speed limits.
ATV
First Aid Services: ATV dollars help provide
resources to assist in remote rescues. On the dunes,
where ambulances cannot reach, special sand rails have
been purchased to help retrieve patients. In other areas,
funds are used for trail patrols during busy times.
Acquisition: Land can be purchased or leased for
ATV riding development. For example, 6200 acres was
purchased in Morrow County in 2003. Already 100-plus
miles of newly developed trails and a new camping/
staging area are available for visitors.
Operation and Maintenance: Many riding areas
need some kind of maintenance. Trails need to be
cleared after winter storms. ATV dollars have paid for
OHV trail maintenance including Tillamook State Forest
and the Millican Valley. Some areas need trail dozers
and excavators to remove whoops, reconstruct water
bars, and groom trails, which makes the trail more fun
to ride and helps protect the environment.

THE MSF
Safety and Education: ATV funds help teach people
to ride safely and properly. Grant dollars help pay for
children under the age of 16 to receive motorcycle or
ATV training at a reduced cost. The development of the
safety training center in Tillamook is also an example of
an ATV grant project.
