Action:
General Review 2014
General Information
Action Summary |
The Board for Waterworks and Wastewater Works Operators and Onsite Sewage System Professionals (Board) will conduct a general review of the regulations. Chapters 892 and 924 of the Acts of the 2007 General Assembly, which were the result of House Bill 3134 and Senate Bill 1270 respectively, required the Board to establish a program for licensing individuals as onsite soil evaluators, onsite sewage system installers and onsite sewage system operators. Said program was incorporated into the regulations which govern waterworks and wastewater works operators. As the regulations have not undergone cumulative review since the inclusion of the onsite sewage program in 2009, a thorough review is necessary to ensure that the regulation complements the current Virginia law, provides minimal burdens on regulants while still protecting the public, and reflects current procedures and policies of the Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation (Department). |
