TITLE 18. PROFESSIONAL AND OCCUPATIONAL LICENSING
Virginia Lead-Based Paint Activities Regulations
Notice of Intended Regulatory Action

Notice is hereby given in accordance with § 2.2-4007.01 of the Code of Virginia that the Virginia Board for Asbestos, Lead, and Home Inspectors intends to consider amending the following regulation: 18VAC15-30, Virginia Lead-Based Paint Activities Regulations. The purpose of the proposed action is to review and amend the regulation to remove the requirement that the lead license expiration date corresponds with the lead training expiration date. The current result is that lead license expiration dates may vary from one license cycle to another causing confusion among regulants. Most licenses issued under the Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation (DPOR) have a license cycle of one or two years and the expiration date is the last day of the month wherein issued. Amending these regulations will make the lead program license cycle consistent with other programs housed under DPOR, which will in turn lessen the confusion among regulants.

The agency intends to hold a public hearing on the proposed action after publication in the Virginia Register.

Statutory Authority: § 54.1-501 of the Code of Virginia.
