Public Participation Guidelines [19 VAC 15 ‑ 11]
Action:
Revision of “Agency” in Public Participation Guidelines
Action 6335
 
General Information
Action Summary This regulatory change amends 19 VAC 15-11 Public Participation Guidelines to redefine “agency” as the Department of Fire Programs. Code of Virginia § 2.2-4007.02 requires that each agency that has the ability to promulgate regulations have public participation guidelines. The Virginia Fire Services Board, a board that is a component of the Department of Fire Programs, does not possess regulatory authority and has not since 1997 (Chapter 791). The Department of Fire Programs, through the Executive Director, still has regulatory authority as found in Code of Virginia § 9.1-215. This regulatory change replaces “Virginia Fire Services Board” with “Department of Fire Programs” to comply with § 2.2-4007.02.
