RE: Coverage under the VPDES Construction General Permit (VAR10)
General Permit No. VARlOM230
WP0201800020
Keswick Hall Additions and Site improvements

Dear Permittee:
DEQ has reviewed your Registration Statement received on October 04, 2018 and determined that the
proposed land -disturbing activity is covered under the General VPDES Permit for Discharges of Stormwater from
Construction Activities (VAR10). The effective date of your coverage under this general permit is July 1, 2014 or
the date of this letter, whichever is later. A copy of the general permit can be obtained from DEQ's webpage at
the following location: http://www.deg.virginia.gov/Portals/0/DEQ/Water/Publications/CGP2014.pdf.
The general permit contains the applicable Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) requirements and
other conditions of coverage. Please print the general permit and read it carefully as you will be responsible for
compliance with all permit conditions. Additionally, coverage under this construction general permit does not
relieve the operator of complying with all other federal, state, or local laws and regulations.
DEQ staff has determined that the proposed land -disturbing activity will discharge to a surface water identified
as impaired or for which a TMDL wasteload allocation has been established and approved prior to the term of the
general permit for (i) sediment or a sediment -related parameter or (ii) nutrients. Therefore, the following general
permit (Part 1.B.4) and SWPPP requirements (Part II.A.5) must be implemented for the land -disturbing activity:
• Permanent or temporary soil stabilization shall be applied to denuded areas within seven (7) days after
final grade is reached on any portion of the site;
• Nutrients (e.g., fertilizers) shall be applied in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations or an
approved nutrient management plan and shall not be applied during rainfall events;
• Inspections shall be conducted at a frequency of (i) at least once every four (4) business days or (ii) at
least once every (5) business days and no later than 48 hours following a measurable storm event. In the
event that a measurable storm event occurs when there are more than 48 hours between business days,
the inspection shall be conducted on the next business day; and
• Representative inspections used by utility line installation, pipeline construction, or other similar linear
construction activities shall inspect all outfalls.
In accordance with the Virginia Stormwater Management Program State Permit Fee Regulation
(9 VAC 25-870-830), you may be required to pay an annual permit maintenance fee until coverage under this
general permit is terminated. If you are required to pay an annual permit maintenance fee, you will receive an
invoice from the VSMP Authority including the amount and due date.
The general permit will expire on June 30, 2019. The conditions of the general permit require that you submit
a new registration statement at least 90 days prior to that date if you wish to continue coverage under the general
permit, unless permission for a later date has been granted by the Board. Permission cannot be granted to submit
the registration statement after the expiration date of the general permit.
If you have any questions about this permit, please contact the DEQ Office of Stormwater Management at
Construction GP(a)deg.virginia.gov.
Sincerely,
Jaime B. Robb, Manager
Office of Stormwater Management
