Pursuant to § 2.2-4007.1 of the Code of Virginia, the Department of Environmental Quality conducted a small business impact review of 9VAC20-110, Regulations Governing the Transportation of Hazardous Materials, and determined that this regulation should be retained in its current form. The Department of Environmental Quality is publishing its report of findings dated November 26, 2018, to support this decision in accordance with § 2.2-4007.1 F of the Code of Virginia.
This regulation is needed to ensure that hazardous materials are transported safely.
The regulation incorporates applicable Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) sections into the regulation. The complexity of the regulation is minimized since Virginia's regulation incorporates sections of the CFR by reference; thereby making the federal and state requirements identical. Section 10.1-1454 of the Code of Virginia states:
Any person transporting hazardous materials in accordance with regulations promulgated under the laws of the United States, shall be deemed to have complied with the provisions of this article, except when such transportation is excluded from regulation under the laws or regulations of the United States.
The regulation has been written to maintain consistency with the federal regulatory requirements pertaining to the transportation of hazardous materials due to the requirements of § 10.1-1454 the Code of Virginia.
Small businesses are required to comply with federal requirements concerning the transportation of hazardous materials; therefore, the adoption of less stringent requirements for small businesses in this regulation to minimize the economic impact of the regulation would not be consistent with federal and state law.
