Current through Register Vol. 41, No. 8, December 2, 2024

Section 1VAC30-45-390 - Follow-up and reporting procedures

A. DCLS shall present an assessment report to the laboratory within 30 calendar days of the assessment.

B. If there are deficiencies identified in the assessment report, the laboratory shall have 30 calendar days from the date of its receipt of the assessment report to provide a response to DCLS. This response shall be called a corrective action plan.

C. An exception to the deadlines specified in subsections A and B of this section may occur in appropriate circumstances. Two circumstances that may be considered appropriate by DCLS are where a possible enforcement investigation or other action has been initiated or where the laboratory shows good cause for an extension.

D. The corrective action plan shall include the following:

1. Any objections that the laboratory has with regard to the assessment report;

2. The action that the laboratory proposes to implement to correct each deficiency identified in the assessment report; and

3. The time period required to accomplish the corrective action.

E. DCLS shall determine and shall notify the laboratory within 30 calendar days of receipt whether the corrective action plan is an acceptable response to the deficiencies identified in the assessment report.

F. If the corrective action plan (or a portion of the plan) is determined to be unacceptable to remedy the deficiency, DCLS shall provide written notification to the responsible official and manager of the laboratory including a detailed explanation of the basis for such determination. Following receipt of such notification, the laboratory shall have an additional 30 calendar days to submit a revised corrective action plan acceptable to DCLS.
