Notice is hereby given that the State Board of Local and Regional Jails has WITHDRAWN the Notice of Intended Regulatory Action for 6VAC15-40, Minimum Standards for Jails and Lockups, that was published in 29:21 VA.R. 2528 June 17, 2013. The notice was published under the regulatory authority of the Board of Corrections, but regulatory authority for 6VAC15-40 transferred pursuant to Chapter 759 of the 2020 Acts of Assembly, to the State Board of Local and Regional Jails. The action noticed would have amended tuberculosis test requirements and certified compliance with 28 CFR Part 115. No follow-up action has been initiated since the notice was published in 2013, therefore the notice is withdrawn. A new periodic review has been initiated on 6VAC15-40, Minimum Standards for Jails and Lockups, and a new action will be initiated as necessary.
