ACEC Oregon ALERT: New Ethics Rules

On January 1, 2008 Senate Bill 10 relating to the limitation of gifts to public officials became law.
Employees at all levels of state and local government have received training on the new law and its impact on historical business practices with, among others, private sector consultants. The law includes significant limits on gift giving, meals, and travel between persons who have a "legislative or administrative interest" before a public body.

Since ACEC members are seeking work or are currently working with state or local governments it is important that you understand these rules and comply with them.
