Section 135. Change of hours in an existing pharmacy

The owner of the pharmacy shall be responsible for providing notice for a change in the hours of operation to the public and to the board in accordance with § 54.1-3434 of the Code of Virginia unless the change is necessitated by emergency circumstances beyond the control of the owner, or unless the change will result in an expansion of the current hours of operation. If the pharmacy is not able to post the changes 14 days in advance, as required by § 54.1-3434, the owner shall ensure that the board is notified as soon as he knows of the change and disclose the emergency circumstances preventing the required notification.
