State fire marshal extends self-service gas through April 25
The Office of State Fire
Marshal is extending a tem-
porary rules change that
allows Oregon gas stations
to provide self-service on a
voluntary basis, in order to
address shortages of work-
ers experienced by gas re-
tailers statewide.
The rules change was
first announced on March
28 with an expiration date
of April 11. This week, State
Fire Marshal Jim Walker
extended the deadline to
April 25.
“We appreciate the pa-
tience of all Oregonians
and businesses with this
temporary suspension of
rules, which now allow
for self-service at Oregon
gas stations,” said Walker.
“These changes provide
station operators flexibility
to manage their operations
and help to make refueling
safer for both customers
and service station atten-
dants, while keeping sta-
tions open at a critical time
when COVID-19 is impact-
ing gas retailers who serve
our many essential workers
statewide.”
The change allows station
attendants to help these
customers while avoiding
face-to-face, hand-to-hand
contact. It also applies phys-
ical distancing measures.
Attendants will continue
to sanitize equipment and
fuel nozzles and continue to
help customers with their
refueling as needed.
Self-service is not man-
datory but having it as an
option allows some gas
stations to continue their
operations with less staff
and allows Oregonians who
have to travel to still drive
without the concern of not
finding gas.
Unattended self-service
is permitted when a gas
station owner exhausts all
staffing options. Stations
that do not have an atten-
dant on duty are required to
post safety signs for physi-
cal distancing and instruc-
tions showing customers
how to operate a fuel pump
correctly.
This extension of the
self-service rules change
does not affect areas of the
state that are already autho-
rized for self-service refuel-
ing under Oregon law.
Information about the
extended rules change for
self-service gasoline can be
found on the OSFM web-
site.

gency Coordination Center

Governor Kate Brown
has announced the launch
of the Coronavirus Small
Business Resource Nav-
igator, which will help
connect small businesses
to financial support and
information they need to

the COVID-19 crisis.
“My goal is to connect
thousands of Oregon’s
small businesses with the
federal, state, and local fi-
nancial support available
to small businesses deal-
ing with the impacts of
COVID-19,” said Gover-
nor Brown. “There are po-
tentially billions of dollars
available from the CARES

businesses to get their fair
share.”
Business Oregon will
lead the new Small Busi-

with support from several
state agencies including
the Oregon Employment
Department, the Oregon
Secretary of State, and the
Oregon Department of
Consumer and Business
Services.

and Economy Policy Ad-
visor, Leah Horner, is
spearheading the initiative
along with the Resource
Navigator’s lead manager
from Business Oregon,
Melisa Drugge.
The Resource Naviga-
tor will include a hotline
and a website containing
comprehensive informa-
tion on key programs for
small businesses, available
at oregon4biz.com, with
access to:
• Small Business As-
sociation programs es-
tablished by the recently
passed federal CARES
Act, including: the Pay-
check Protection Pro-
gram, Economic Injury
Disaster Loans, and Debt
Relief programs
• State of Oregon pro-
grams, including the En-
trepreneurial
Develop-
ment Loan Fund
• Local government
programs, such as the
South Central Oregon
Economic Development
Development
District
Economic Relief Loan
Fund for Small Businesses
• More resources will be
rapidly added to the Re-
source Navigator website
on an ongoing basis
• A hotline and email
will be available for small
business owners to get
more information on ac-
cessing financial support
at the local, state, and fed-
eral levels.
