OR Hi .2P37x ; 323 ; Includes ill. and maps. ; The history of State Parks of Oregon could well start with the administration of the late Governor Oswald West. In his message to the 1913 Legislature he said, 'The ocean beach from the Columbia River on the North to the California State line on the South should be declared a Public Highway'. Further early thought relating to what later became one of our finest parks was expressed by former Governor James Withycombe in his message to the 1917 Legislature: 'At Champoeg on May 2, 1843, was held a gathering of unique significance in the western history of the United States, marking the official birth of Oregon. The anniversary of this occasion is celebrated each year. It seems eminently fitting that the State should recognize the significance of these annual meetings and the event they commemorate by giving financial aid to the erection of a modest building at Champoeg.' In the study of the origin of parks in Oregon, it is clear the ideas put forth in the beginning were not the same as those ultimately determined. The thought of most people was to retain the natural environment along the highways as nearly as possible and at the same time provide stopping places for the traveler. Then, to create some natural beauty where none or very little existed, it was decided to plant the highway rights of way with trees or shrubs suitable, or indigenous, to the region." P 1 [12]

State agency web portal providing information on water and water resources. The vision of the Water Resources Department is to assure sufficient and sustainable water supplies are available to meet current and future needs. Mission Statement The Department's mission is to serve the public by practicing and promoting wise long-term water management through two key goals: 1) to directly address Oregon's water supply needs, and 2) to restore and protect streamflows and watersheds in order to ensure the long-term sustainability of Oregon's ecosystems, economy, and quality of life. Organization By law, all surface and ground water in Oregon belongs to the public. The Water Resources Department is the state agency charged with administration of the laws governing surface and ground water resources. The Department's core functions are to protect existing water rights, facilitate voluntary streamflow restoration, increase the understanding of the demands on the state's water resources, provide accurate and accessible water resource data, and facilitate water supply solutions. The Director of the Water Resources Department is charged with carrying out the water management policies and rules set by the Water Resources Commission and with overseeing the enforcement of Oregon's water laws. The Director is appointed by the Governor for a four-year term, subject to confirmation by the Senate. The Department is organized into five divisions: Field Services, Technical Services, Water Rights and Adjudications, Director's Office, and Administrative Services. Department headquarters and the Northwest Regional office are in Salem. The Department also has four other regional offices and 15 small field offices throughout Oregon.
