Two rod

Hey all I tried reading the regulations for using two rod validation in the Tualatin river but I can't find anything on it. Does anyone know if you can use two rods?
 
page 7 of this years printed regs book- the 2 rod validation is allowed in lakes, ponds, and reservoirs BUT only in streams/rivers when specifically authorized. so if you can't find anything authorizing it in exemptions or a regs update for the stream/river of interest, it is not allowed there.

basically, it's a NO unless you can find something changing that to a YES.

The only thing I've found is it said the willamette river and it's tributaries, and the Tualatin is a tributary of the willamette, also 2 years ago two rod validation wad good
 
I recall they have done some temporary 2 rod for Willamette, this is the current one, Tualatin is upstream of Willamette Falls, correct?
