TITLE 22. SOCIAL SERVICES
DEPARTMENT FOR THE BLIND AND VISION IMPAIRED
Chapter 50
Notice of Intended Regulatory Action

Notice is hereby given in accordance with § 2.2-4007.01 of the Code of Virginia that the Department for the Blind and Vision Impaired intends to consider repealing 22VAC45-50, Regulation Governing Provisions of Services in Vocational Rehabilitation, and promulgating 22VAC45-51, Regulations Governing Provisions of Services in Vocational Rehabilitation. The purpose of the proposed action is to repeal existing regulation 22VAC45-50 concurrently with the promulgation of new regulation 22VAC45-51. The current regulation, last revised in 1990, is outdated. The new regulation 22VAC45-51, will incorporate updated federal language, update the names of two agencies, eliminate one section that is not necessary to ensure compliance with federal regulations, separate one section into two separate sections to provide greater clarification, and combine two sections that are duplicative.

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

Statutory Authority: § 51.5-65 of the Code of Virginia.

Public Comment Deadline: May 8, 2013.
