Action:
Amend the Department’s Regulatory Public Participation Procedures to address changes in Code and changes in Department Practices and Procedures.
Action 1348
General Information
| Action Summary |
The Department of Conservation and Recreation is amending its Regulatory Public Participation Procedures regulations (4 VAC 5-10-10 et seq.) that provide additional guidance to the general public on how the Department will solicit and receive the input from interested persons in the formation, development, amendment or repeal of regulations. The Director of the Department authorized this action on June 11, 2003. This regulatory action addresses changes to the Code of Virginia in Chapter 844 (SB1098) of the 2001 Acts of Assembly which revised and recodified Titles 2.1 and 9 and thus changed referenced section numbers; changes in Chapter 241 (HB725) of the 2002 Acts of Assembly which clarified steps a petitioner must take to perfect a petition for rulemaking and agency responsibilities and provided for publication of petitions in the Virginia Register of Regulations; and changes in Chapter 717 (HB1473) of the 1995 Virginia Acts of Assembly changed this requirement which removed the requirement to publish regulatory notices in the newspaper.
In addition to the changes made to conform the regulations to changes in Virginia Statutory Law, other amendments to the regulations relate to other exempt actions allowed for in § 2.2-4006 A including actions relative to updating the regulations to reflect changes in Department internal practices and procedures, changes in style or form, and to correct technical errors. |
