General Information
Action Summary The Regulations for Alternative Onsite Sewage Systems (AOSS Regulations) (12VAC5-613) became effective December 7, 2011. As required by Executive Order 14 amended (2018) and ยงยง 2.2-4007.1 and 2.2-4017 of the Code of Virginia, VDH must conduct a periodic review of the regulations every four years. The purpose of the periodic review is to determine whether the regulations should be continued without change or be amended or repealed in part. VDH initiated the comment period for this Periodic Review on January 25, 2016, and ended the comment period on February 25, 2016. VDH received 34 comments during the period noting areas of potential improvement. Additionally, legislation introduced during the 2018 General Assembly Session highlighted further areas for improvement. Based on this feedback, the intended regulatory action would propose to amend the following areas of the AOSS Regulations: 1. 12VAC5-613-10 2. 12VAC5-613-30 3. 12VAC5-613-40 4. 12VAC5-613-50 5. 12VAC5-613-60 6. 12VAC5-613-70 7. 12VAC5-613-80 8. 12VAC5-613-90 9. 12VAC5-613-100 10. 12VAC5-613-120 11. 12VAC5-613-150 12. 12VAC6-613-160 13. 12VAC5-613-170 14. 12VAC5-613-180 15. 12VAC5-613-190 16. 12VAC5-613-200 17. 12VAC5-613-210
