Local record guide
What we hold on Fairview, and who keeps its records.
Local profile
Fairview, a place of 10,424 people, keeps its own council and town business records. The Multnomah County offices are in Portland, the county seat. Our Multnomah County page lists each county office.
Abandoned mine records
Where the workings are, and the office that holds the mine maps.
From the old mine records
The mine records hold 1 named mine site inside the city or town limits, 1 of them worked out or abandoned. The mineral the records name is construction sand and gravel.
A point in either file is a location, not a property line: the sheet shows the opening on the surface, not the rooms under it. The record that shows what runs under a parcel is the mine map. The OSMRE National Mine Map Repository holds scanned underground mine maps and answers requests for a named mine or an area. Oregon has no state abandoned mine land program page; abandoned mine hazards on federal land are a BLM and Forest Service matter.
Disclaimer: The mine information here is for general information only. Old mine records can be incomplete, outdated or wrong, and finding nothing here does not mean there is nothing there. Check with the mine map office named here before you rely on it, and have a qualified engineer look at any ground you are worried about. PublicRecordCenter.com assumes no responsibility or liability for any errors, omissions, or consequences arising from the use of this information.
