Notice is hereby given in accordance with § 2.2-4007.01 of the Code of Virginia that the Board for Contractors intends to consider amending 18VAC50-22, Board for Contractors Regulations. The purpose of the proposed action is to divide the existing sewage disposal systems contracting specialty in 18VAC50-22-30 into two new specialties: alternative sewage disposal system contracting and conventional sewage disposal system contracting. A division of the existing specialty will align the licensing of the contractor licenses for these specialties, issued by the Board for Contractors, with the individual licenses issued by the Board for Waterworks and Wastewater Works Operators and Onsite Sewage System Professionals.

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

Statutory Authority: § 54.1-201 of the Code of Virginia.

Public Comment Deadline: September 30, 2020.
