Narrative:
CRJ7; on approach to runway 8; was informed about traffic that would be going into position runway 15. B738 took that to mean for him and read back 'runway 15; position and hold' was informed that was for CRJ7 and then was instructed 'runway 15 position and hold.' this requirement to inform arriving aircraft of aircraft holding on a different runway is new. This incident shows that this new procedure is flawed and has the possibility of increasing; not decreasing the possibility of a land over incident or a runway incursion.

B738 TOOK THAT TO MEAN FOR HIM AND READ BACK 'RWY 15; POS AND HOLD' WAS INFORMED THAT WAS FOR CRJ7 AND THEN WAS INSTRUCTED 'RWY 15 POS AND HOLD.' THIS REQUIREMENT TO INFORM ARRIVING ACFT OF ACFT HOLDING ON A DIFFERENT RWY IS NEW.
