Description
Pesticide Control Act; civil penalties; process. Clarifies the process by which the Board of Agriculture and Consumer Services assesses a penalty for a violation of the Virginia Pesticide Control Act (VPCA), aligning the provisions of VPCA with those of the Administrative Process Act (APA). The bill provides that a notice of an alleged violation does not constitute a case decision under the APA and gives the recipient of such notice 30 days to provide additional relevant facts. The bill preserves the recipient's rights to an informal fact-finding conference, an appeal of a final order, and other aspects of due process found in current law. Read the Bill »
