Regulation Suspension for Additional Comment and Public Hearing
The Delaware Board of Professional Land Surveyors (“Board”), pursuant to 24 Del.C. §2706(a), proposed revisions to its rules and regulations describing minimum technical standards for licensees.
Following extensive public comment and testimony, the Board adopted revisions to these regulations in October 2010, with the publication of the order adopting the new regulations appearing in the Delaware Register on January 1, 2011, at 14 DE Reg. 675 (01/01/11). A full copy of these new regulations appeared in the Register immediately after the Order adopting them.
Shortly thereafter, a group of professional land surveyors filed suit to overturn these new regulations in part, in an action captioned Elrod, et al. v. Delaware Board of Professional Land Surveyors, C.A. No. N11C-01-073 JAP. The lawsuit challenged the portions of the new regulations regarding Mortgage Inspection Plans, now to be called Mortgage Survey Plans.
In an effort to resolve this litigation, at a regularly scheduled Board meeting on June 16, 2011, the Board agreed to suspend the implementation and enforcement of the new regulations, pending another opportunity for written comment and another public hearing. After the hearing and the receipt of any further written public comment, the Board will decide what next steps will occur regarding these new regulations.
Therefore, the new regulations, as published in the Delaware Register January 1, 2011, are hereby suspended, pending the receipt of any additional written public comments up to and including the day of a public hearing to be held regarding these regulations.
The Board will hold the public hearing on these regulations on October 20,2011 at 09:00 a.m., during its regularly scheduled meeting, at the Second Floor Conference Room A, Cannon Building, 861 Silver Lake Blvd., Dover, DE 19904. Written comments should be sent to Sandra Wagner, Administrator of the Delaware Board of Professional Land Surveyors, Cannon Building, 861 Silver Lake Blvd., Dover, DE 19904.
The Delaware Department of Transportation, through its Division of Planning, seeks to adopt amendments toits existing regulations regarding subdivision streets and state highway access, with respect to the current provisions concerning the scope of work for Traffic Impact Studies and Traffic Operational Analyses. As detailed in the current Manual, the Department has broad statutory authority to regulate the process of determining whether and under what conditions property developers may gain access to the state highway system.
The Department previously entered into agreements with county governments regarding traffic impact studies and traffic operational analyses. The draft regulations are intended to provide sufficient guidance to the state, local governments, the development community, and those interested in development matters in this regard. The Department wishes to assure that the study areas selected match well with what intersections the Department reasonably expects to be significantly affected by the traffic from the subject property, given its proposed uses.
Additional Public Workshop and Comment Period Extended
The draft regulations were initially published, seeking written comments, in the June 1, 2011, edition of the Delaware Register (14 Del.Reg. 1323). The Department then announced and held a workshop concerning the draft regulations on August 1, 2011 at the DelDOT Administration Building, 800 Bay Road, Dover, Delaware.
The Department announces that there will be an additional workshop on these draft regulations, along with an extension of the written comment period.
The workshop will be held on Wednesday, September 14, 2011 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., at the auditorium of the Carvel State Office Building, 820 North French Street in Wilmington, Delaware.
The extended comment period for these regulations ends September 30, 2011.
The intent of the workshop is to inform the public about the changes and to solicit input prior to finalizing the regulations. The workshop will consist of a presentation on the regulatory changes and a question and answer session with a panel of DelDOT staff. Interested citizens are encouraged to contribute written questions in advance of the meeting by sending them via email to Brett Taylor at dotpr@state.de.us. Audience members at the time of the meeting may provide written questions to be asked during the panel discussion. The number of questions addressed will be subject to the time available at the meeting.
