Section 101.2 of Chapter one of the USBC adopts 2003 IBC with
amendments.  The 2003 IBC adopts the 1999 edition of NFPA 13.
Therefore, the 1999 edition is adopted.

Subject: Virginia State building codes and NFPA 13?

I've searched the Virginia State web sites looking for something telling
me which version of NFPA they use.  Can not find anything.  I know they
use their own version of IBC (VA USBC), got that, but is there anyone
out there in Cyberland from VA that can tell me what edition is adopted
and where that can be verified?  I'm in Newport News.  (well I'm not
actually there but that's where the project will be) 

Thanks,
