Notice of Periodic Review
Pursuant to Executive Order Number 25 (98), the Department of Mines, Minerals, and Energy is currently reviewing the Public Participation Guidelines to determine if it should be terminated, amended, or retained in its current form. The Public Participation Guidelines govern the regulatory actions of the Department of Mines, Minerals and Energy, the Virginia Gas and Oil Board, the Board of Coal Mining Examiners and the Board of Mineral Mining Examiners.
The department seeks public comment regarding the essential need of the regulation to protect the health, safety, or welfare of citizens or for the efficient and economical importance of an important government function. The department seeks to consider less burdensome and intrusive alternatives to the regulation, specific and measurable goals that the regulation intends to achieve, and whether the regulation is clearly written and easily understandable. The department will convene a regulatory work group to review the regulation after receipt of comments in response to this notice.
