Notice of Intended Regulatory Action

Notice is hereby given in accordance with § 2.2-4007.01 of the Code of Virginia that the Alcoholic Beverage Control Authority intends to consider amending 3VAC5-50, Retail Operations.

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