Nothing in ORS § 466.706 to 466.882 and 466.994 is intended to interfere with, limit or abridge the authority of the Department of Consumer and Business Services or the State Fire Marshal, or any other state agency or local unit of government relating to combustion and explosion hazards, hazard communications or land use. The complementary relationship between the protection of the public safety from combustion and explosion hazards, and protection of the public health, safety, welfare and the environment from releases of regulated substances from underground storage tanks is recognized. Therefore, the Department of Environmental Quality shall work cooperatively with the Department of Consumer and Business Services, the State Fire Marshal and local units of government in developing the rules and procedures necessary to carry out the provisions of ORS § 466.706 to 466.882 and 466.994. [1987 c.539 § 10]
