NOTICES OF INTENDED REGULATORY ACTION

Vol. 26 Iss. 4 - October 26, 2009

TITLE 2. AGRICULTURE

BOARD OF AGRICULTURE AND CONSUMER SERVICES

Chapter 420

Notice of Intended Regulatory Action

Notice is hereby given in accordance with § 2.2-4007.01 of the Code of Virginia that the Board of Agriculture and Consumer Services intends to consider repealing the following regulations: 2VAC5-420, Regulations for the Enforcement of the Virginia Gasoline and Motor Fuel Law. The purpose of the proposed action is to seek comments regarding the possible repeal of the regulation. The current regulation prescribes basic requirements for enforcement of the Virginia Motor Fuels and Lubricating Oils Law (Chapter 12 (§ 59.1-149 et seq.) of Title 59.1 of the Code of Virginia). The 2009 session of the Virginia General Assembly amended the Motor Fuels and Lubricating Oils Law by incorporating by reference certain national specifications for the inspection and testing of motor fuels. Given that the essential elements of the regulation have been incorporated into the statute, the regulation may no longer be needed and may be repealed.

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

Statutory Authority: § 59.1-156 of the Code of Virginia.

Public Comment Deadline: November 25, 2009.
