Oregon DOT has a single-post temporary sign support (TSS) for the installation of signs less than 9 sq. ft. The state allows the placement of ballast in the form of sandbags on the legs of the TSS. Each bag shall be limited to 25 pounds, but there is no limit on the number of bags placed on the legs.
