Do you need to renew your driver license?  Need help finding a job?  Perhaps you have business with the Oregon Department of Agriculture?

If so, don't wait until Friday.  Almost all state government offices are closed for another furlough day to save the state money.  

This is the third furlough day since October.

Below is the full list of agencies that will close on March 19, 2010, and the agencies that will operate under normal conditions. (Source: Oregon State Government)
