18VAC10-20-10. Definitions "Resident" et. al.
 

18VAC10-20-10 Resident: Revise this definition (or another associated definition) to indicate that the "Responsible person" be employed by the registered company during the course of the design. (I have seen instances where the work is stamped at the end of a project by a third party.) Reference also current language in 18VAC10-20-650.

18 VAC 10-20-770 As part of the revision to this section, include language to include provisions for proof of supervision of remote work (markups, meeting / Teams / email notes)

General comment - not for the record: I applaud the decision to revise this section. Many companies, including mine, have gone to hybrid work schedules. In addition, the business model of many companies has shifted to sharing work across smaller offices. This makes it difficult at times to have a registered person in each location.

SOA Draft
 

Please reconsider changing the SOA amendments. The proposed plan is not more transparent at all. 

 

It is better to have two accountability systems than to switch to the proposed system.
