County Code section 17-410 and Virginia Code §62.1-44.15:34 requires the VSMP authority to
act on any VSMP permit by issuing a project approval or denial. This project is denied. The
rationale is given in the comments below. The application may be resubmitted for approval if all
of the items below are satisfactorily addressed. The VSMP application content requirements can
be found in County Code section 17-401.
A. Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP)
The SWPPP content requirements can be found in County Code section 17-405. A SWPPP must
contain (1) a PPP, (2) an ESCP, (3) a SWMP, and (4) any TMDL measures necessary.
Provide updated registration statement and exhibit showing areas covered. This exhibit should
reference WPO numbers that are covering certain areas. Rev. 1: The current permit is for 59.56
AC. The registration statement submitted shows 50.07. The current permit will need to be
modified to the reduced area if this is correct. Also, please show which operators are
responsible for which areas on the exhibit. Ensure that the areas match the registration
statements. Currently, the HUD project is 19.26 AC and the overall Brookhill project is
59.56. Also, there is a green color on the exhibit that is not in the legend. If it is overlapping
colors, provide explanation or change areas. Only one operator should be responsible for
each area. Rev. 2: An updated registration statement was not provided. Sheet C-107 does
not identify the operators for each area.
B. Pollution Prevention Plan (PPP)
The PPP content requirements can be found in County Code section 17-404.
1. Ensure PPP is updated on site with the approved plans. Rev. 1:Comment addressed.
C. Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP)
VSMP Regulation 9VAC25-870-108 requires the VSMP authority to approve or disapprove a
SWMP. This plan is disapproved, and the reasons are provided in the comments below. The
stormwater management plan content requirements can be found in County Code section 17-403.
Engineering Review Comments

1. Provide updated stormwater calculations to show the quality and quantity measures are met with
the new, expanded disturbed areas for the proposed change in land cover conditions with this plan.
Rev. 1: Calculations not provided. Updated Pond 4 routings? Water quality tracking table?
Rev. 2: Updated table was provided on Sheet C-901.
2. Provide a narrative explaining the amendment. How much area has been added, changes proposed
with this plan. Rev. 1: See SWPPP comment regarding areas. Also, put the revision summary
(4 bullets) provided in the comment response letter on the plans (sheet C-100). Does this plan
change the designs of the basins, or just the elevations? Rev. 2: Comment not addressed.
Narrative with revisions not provided.
3. Rev 1: [C-100] Title should say WPO201700037 amendment 1, not field revision 1. Rev. 2:
Comment not addressed. Title now says WPO2019..... Please label is WPO201700037
amendment 1.
4. Rev. 1: Ensure proposed Greenway is labeled, not existing 100 ft buffer. Rev. 2: Comment
addressed.
5. Rev. 1: It is known that the location of Pond 10 is changing, however this plan revisions still
uses it as a sediment basin. If it is not going to be built, shouldn't it be shown as removed on
this revision? Rev. 2: This area isn't shown on this revision.
6. Rev. 2: Note 2 Sheet C-200/201. Cannot propose disturbance to these preserved slopes until
a slope exhibit has been submitted and approved.
7. Rev. 2: How does Sheet C-900 apply to overall development master spreadsheet? Highlight
or summarize changes on Sheet C-901.
8. Rev. 2: Can this plan amendment be expanded to include the current issues on site? Areas
near the VDOT pond? Areas near Polo Grounds Road? We have not received any exhibits
yet.
9. Rev. 2: Comment response letter was not provided.
10. Rev. 2: This plan does not appear to match the previous amendment that was submitted?
Perhaps we should coordinate a meeting to discuss.
D. Erosion and Sediment Control Plan (ESCP)
Virginia Code §62.1-44.15:55 requires the VESCP authority to approve or disapprove an ESCP.
This plan is disapproved, and the reasons are provided in the comments below. The erosion control
plan content requirements can be found in County Code section 17-402.
1. Sheet C-602 shows tree protection going through grading/disturbance. Rev. 1: Comment
addressed.
2. Sheet C-616 shows E&S measures going through preserved slopes. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
3. Provide detail for modified mud trap. Reference the allowance in the VESCH. Rev. 1: Comment
addressed.
4. Expand perimeter controls on Sheet C-619. SSF stops in the middle of proposed grading. Rev. 1:
comment addressed.
5. Are changes proposed to the sediment basins/ponds with this plan? Calculations were provided.
Are they revisions? Please clarify. If changes are proposed, revise the riser structure details, etc.
(cross them out and update). Show drainage areas to the basins to match the calculations. Rev. 1:
comment addressed.
6. Provide calculation showing SF meets the 100ft0/0.25 ac requirement. Rev. 1: Sheet C-614 A
shows one area that is less than 100ft/0.25ac silt fence. Rev. 2: This Sheet is no longer in the
plans.
7. Clearly label basins on plans and match them with the calculations. For example, which basin is on

sheet C-618? Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
8. Rev 1 [C-602]: Show perimeter controls adjacent to Polo Grounds Rd. It appears the silt
fence is not shown. Rev. 2: This Sheet is no longer in the plans.
9. Rev. 1 [C-614] There are two entrances shown (one on 29 and one off Polo Grounds). Are
these private entrances? If so, please add a note that no construction vehicles shall use this
entrance. Rev. 2: This Sheet is no longer in the plans.
10. Rev. 1 [C-616] The outfall to pond 11 must go to a channel. This sheet does not show the
outfall at a channel. Perhaps the rip -rap extends to the existing channel, but is not shown?
Rev. 2: This Sheet is no longer in the plans.
11. Rev. 1: [C-621 and anywhere on site] Please add note regarding 2:1 slopes. Bond shall not be
released until stabilized. This can be steep slope seed mix or ground cover. Rev. 2: This
Sheet is no longer in the plans.
12. Rev. 1: [C-618] Check matchlines. C-618 is listed on this sheet. Rev. 2: This Sheet is no
longer in the plans.
13. Rev 2: MT-1— can it handle 2.55 acres? Outfalls over steep slopes? How to prevent wash
outs? Detail or profile about outfall? Does this match the current conditions on site? An
area similar to this, closer the VDOT pond, has experienced failure around the outfall.
The VSMP permit application and all plans may be resubmitted for approval when all comments have
been satisfactorily addressed. For re -submittals please provide 2 copies of the complete permit package
with a completed application form.
Engineering plan review staff are available from 2-4 PM on Thursdays, should you require a meeting to
discuss this review.
Process;
After approval, plans will need to be bonded. The bonding process is begun by submitting a bond estimate
request form and fee to the Department of Community Development. One of the plan reviewers will
prepare estimates and check parcel and easement information based on the approved plans. The County's
Management Analyst will prepare bond agreement forms, which will need to be completed by the owner
and submitted along with cash, certificates or sureties for the amounts specified. The agreements will need
to be approved and signed by the County Attorney and County Engineer. This may take 2-4 weeks to
obtain all the correct signatures and forms.
After bonding and agreements are complete, county staff will need to enter project information in a DEQ
database for state application processing. DEQ will review the application information based on local
VSMP authority approval. At this time, the DEQ portion of the application fees will need to be paid
directly to the state. For fastest processing, this is done electronically with the emails provided on the
application. DEQ should notify applicants with instructions on how to pay fees. When DEQ approves the
application, they will issue a permit coverage letter. This should be copied to the county.
After DEQ coverage is issued, via the coverage letter, the County can hold a pre -construction conference.
Applicants will need to complete the request for a pre -construction conference form, and pay the remainder
of the application fee. The form identifies the contractor and responsible land disturber, and the fee
remaining to be paid. This will be checked by county staff, and upon approval, a pre -construction
conference will be scheduled with the County inspector. At the pre -construction conference, should
everything proceed satisfactorily, a joint VSMP and grading permit will be issued by the County so that
work may begin.
