Action:
Regulatory Reduction on 8VAC20-70
Action 6728
General Information
| Action Summary |
The Agency initiates this regulatory action to remove references to the Preventive Maintenance Manual for Virginia School Buses (“Manual”). The Manual is currently listed as a document incorporated by reference (“DIBR”) but is more accurately described as a form that may be used by school divisions but is not required. Further, this action is necessary because 1VAC7-10-140(D) states that “[e]ffective January 1, 2016, an agency may not incorporate one of its own documents by reference unless the agency establishes that the documents or circumstances are unique and highly unusual.” This document was incorporated by reference before January 1, 2016, but should no longer be incorporated by reference because neither the document nor circumstances are unique and highly unusual. By amending the regulation to remove references to the DIBR , the agency will also eliminate discretionary regulatory requirements. |
