| Action Summary | The proposed amendment comes as a result of a change to the Inland Navigation Rules found in 33 CFR, Chapter 1, Subchapter E, Part 83 through 86 and as established by the U.S. Coast Guard which is where our Virginia Administrative Code requirements are derived from. Because of a previous field preemption that was inserted and subsequently removed it was discovered that by incorporating the CFR by reference, it would mitigate any issues of confusion between the two and would simply allow officers to enforce the CFR by reference. |
| Chapters Affected | Only affects this chapter. |
| Executive Branch Review | This Action is exempt from Article 2 of the Administrative Process Act, but falls within the Executive Branch and will be reviewed by the Governor's Office. |
| RIS Project | Yes [7538] |
