Summary:

This regulation was established under the authority of § 53.1-5 of the Code of Virginia, which was amended by Chapter 375 of the 2011 Acts of Assembly. The Board of Corrections no longer has the authority to set standards for state correctional facilities and is, therefore, repealing the regulation.
