As the legislative delegation of power to administrative agencies has grown over recent decades, so have calls for controls on agencies exercise of that power and particularly for controls on agency rulemaking. In response, various state legislatures have introduced a myriad of designs introducing legislative oversight and control over administrative regulations. Pennsylvania has joined these states by offering a means of legislative review of agency rulemaking in the form of the Regulatory Review Act of 1989 (Act 19). Pursuant to the Act, the Pennsylvania Legislature created an entity called the Independent Regulatory Review Commission and assigned to the Commission the …

What's Current In Asbestos Regulations, Janis L. Kirkland

University of Richmond Law Review

Asbestos, once valued as a superb insulator, is now recognized as a deadly carcinogen. The United States Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") estimates that 733,000 public and commercial buildings in the United States contain friable asbestos or asbestos-containing materials.

Annual Survey Of Virginia Law: Administrative Procedure, James E. Ryan Jr., Renata Manzo Scruggs

University of Richmond Law Review

In 1989, the Virginia General Assembly made several relatively minor, but significant, changes to the Virginia Administrative Process Act (VAPA). These amendments modified the manner in which agencies may promulgate regulations and conduct informal fact finding hearings. Two new exemptions to the VAPA were created: one for rules for the conduct of specific lottery games; and a second for orders condemning shellfish growing areas. In other changes, rulemaking proceedings conducted by the State Water Control Board (SWCB), certain decisions of the Board of Social Services, and amendments to standards for asbestos inspections became subject to different provisions of the VAPA.

The implementation of environmental law and policy has assumed that pollution could be contained, corralled and interdicted within the medium (air, land, or water) in which unpleasant effects are encountered. Sweeping, but piecemeal, federal legislation in the 1970s aspired to create healthy air, together with fishable, swimmable and drinkable waters. Despite impressive gains, these goals have not been achieved. There have been painful failures, compounded by the mounting costs of environmental protection. While the need for environmental protection is generally accepted, the effectiveness and efficiency of regulation based on the legislation of the 1970s has been questioned in the 1980s. …
