Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board--Point System for Certain Licensees; Regulation #54-62 On April 13, 2005, the Independent Regulatory Review Commission (Commission) received this regulation from the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board (Board). This rulemaking adds Sections 3.121 and 3.122 to 40 Pa. Code. Notice of proposed rulemaking was omitted for this regulation; it will become effective upon publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. On May 24, 2005, the Board tolled the review of this regulation and simultaneously submitted a revised regulation with technical corrections.
This regulation implements a provision in Section 479 of the Liquor Code which authorizes the Board to assign points against a proprietor's liquor license for certain violations of the Liquor Code. Section 479 and this regulation apply to cities of the first class.
We have determined this regulation is consistent with the statutory authority of the Board (47 P. S. §§ 2-207(i) and 4-479(c)) and the intention of the General Assembly. Having considered all of the other criteria of the Regulatory Review Act, we find promulgation of this regulation is in the public interest.
By Order of the Commission:
This regulation is approved.

The regulation updates existing technical standards and color and marking requirements for school buses to be consistent with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards and industry specifications.
