NOTICES OF INTENDED REGULATORY ACTION

Vol. 33 Iss. 4 - October 17, 2016

TITLE 12. HEALTH

STATE BOARD OF HEALTH

Chapter 520

Notice of Intended Regulatory Action

Notice is hereby given in accordance with § 2.2-4007.01 of the Code of Virginia that the State Board of Health intends to consider amending 12VAC5-520, Regulations Governing the State Dental Scholarship and Loan Repayment Programs. The purpose of the proposed action is to comprehensively review and revise the regulation, which has not been done in over a decade. This regulatory action is also necessary to amend the regulation to conform to similar regulatory chapters. There are several scholarship and loan repayment programs administered by the Virginia Department of Health, and this regulation as currently written does not resemble those other programs. The proposed amendments are intended to make the regulatory chapter consistent with similar programs.

This Notice of Intended Regulatory Action serves as the report of the findings of the regulatory review pursuant to § 2.2-4007.1 of the Code of Virginia.

The agency does not intend to hold a public hearing on the proposed action after publication in the Virginia Register.

Statutory Authority: §§ 32.1-12 and 32.1-122.9 of the Code of Virginia.

Public Comment Deadline: November 16, 2016.

Agency Contact: Susan Puglisi, Policy Analyst, Department of Health, Virginia Department of Health, 109 Governor Street, Richmond, VA 23219, telephone [phone], FAX [phone], or email [e-mail].
