    This is probably going to seem like a really dumb question, but do you know when the State of Virginia officially will (or already has) adopt the 2009 IBC.  
    After a seminar yesterday that declared that it was already adopted, I went to the State of Va. government codes site and it still references the 2006 IBC as referenced in  the VUSBC.  Searching on Google was even more interesting, as the results included Sept. 2010, Dec. 2010, January 2011 and March 2011.  They can't all be right, but they could all be wrong.  Any Virginian's out there with the straight scoop on adoption dates?

    Thanks for you help,
