ORS § 459A.968
The Legislative Assembly declares that the collaboration of producers through producer responsibility organizations to develop and implement producer responsibility program plans is in the best interests of the public. Therefore, the Legislative Assembly declares its intent that participating in a producer responsibility organization to implement a producer responsibility program plan as required by ORS 459A.860 to 459A.975 shall be exempt from state antitrust laws. The Legislative Assembly further declares its intent to provide immunity for participating in a producer responsibility organization to implement a producer responsibility program plan as required by ORS 459A.860 to 459A.975 from federal antitrust laws. This section does not authorize any person to engage in activities or to conspire to engage in activities that constitute per se violations of state or federal antitrust laws that are not authorized under ORS 459A.860 to 459A.975.
