HB 649 Waste Management Board; issuance of special orders.
Introduced by: Jerrauld C. Jones | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY:
Waste Management Board special orders. Empowers the Virginia Waste Management Board to issue administrative orders called "special orders" that have a duration of not more than 12 months and contain a civil penalty of not more than $10,000. The special orders may only be issued for violations of: (i) any law or regulation administered by the Board; (ii) any condition of a Board-issued permit or certificate; or (iii) any case decision or order of the Board. The issuance of special orders by the Board is further restricted to situations where there have been at least two notices of violations related to the same violation that have not resulted in satisfactory compliance and a hearing has been held. Except in emergency situations, there is a five-day lag time before special orders become effective. The power to issue special orders in this bill is similar to, but more restrictive than, existing powers of the Air Pollution Control Board and the State Water Control Board.
