Date Petition Received | 04/13/2016 |
Petitioner | Greg Huber |
To eliminate the allowance for a person to reactivate or reinstate a license by payment
of the required fee within one renewal cycle. The regulation appears to allow a person
to let his license lapse and then pay the reinstatement fee without meeting the requirements
for continued competency for renewal of licensure.
Agency Plan
In accordance with Virginia law, the petition to amend the regulations has been filed
with the Register of Regulations for publication on May 2, 2016. It is also posted
on the Virginia Regulatory Townhall at www.townhall.virginia.gov and will be available
for comment on-line on that date. Comment on the petition from interested parties
is requested until June 1, 2016.
Following receipt of all comments on the petition, the request to examine requirements
for persons reactivating or reinstating a license will be considered by the Board
at its meeting on July 19, 2016.
