OregonRelating to work performed by a landscape contracting business; and prescribing an effective date.
What it does
Requires the State Landscape Contractors Board to determine that a landscape contracting business is an independent contractor with responsibility for obtaining workers' compensation insurance if the landscape contracting business performs certain work related to backflow assemblies for irrigation systems and ornamental water features, to landscape irrigation control wiring and outdoor landscape lighting or to removing or pruning trees or tree limbs or stumps or performing tree or tree limb guying. Exempts persons or businesses who are licensed with the Construction Contractors Board and who install ornamental water features from a requirement to obtain a landscape contractors license.
