… evaluating site and soil conditions in compliance with this chapter under the direct supervision of a licensed conventional onsite soil evaluator or of a licensed alternative onsite soil evaluator;

Recommend changing to: evaluating site and soil conditions in compliance with this chapter under the direct supervision of an interim onsite soil evaluator, of a licensed conventional onsite soil evaluator or of a licensed alternative onsite soil evaluator;

Per 18VAC160-20-82, VDH personnel certificated as Authorized Onsite Soil Evaluator’s will become interim onsite soil evaluators on July 1, 2009.  Individuals such as non-AOSE VDH personnel seeking a license as a COSE must have direct supervision of a licensed conventional onsite soil evaluator or of a licensed alternative onsite soil evaluator.  The problem is all VDH personnel will either be interim onsite soil evaluators or non-COSE’s.  As of July 1, 2009, VDH will not have any COSE’s or AOSE’s, but only interim onsite soil evaluators.
