The quality compliance as determined in the DEQ VRRM worksheet will need to be met. If nutrient
credits will be purchased, be aware that the site drains to impaired waters as determined by DEQ and
the credits will need to be purchased from within the same 8- digit F1UC (the Ivy Creek bank and the

Revision 1, 2 Comments
1. A Stormwater Maintenance Agreement will be needed. Please contact Ana Kilmer in our office to

"The SWM Forest and Open Space Easement is subject to the guidance set forth by DEQ in the Virginia
Stormwater Management Program. The areas will remain undisturbed in a natural, vegetated state, except
for activities as approved by the local program authority, such as forest management, control of invasive
species, replanting and revegetating, passive recreation (e.g., trails), and limited bush hogging to maintain
desired vegetative community (but no more than four times a year)." (Rev. 2) Addressed via Easement
Plat Note 4. (SUB202200151).
3.The SWM Forest and Open Space Easement will need to be platted prior to VSMP approval. A deed

I.The ESC plan appears acceptable at this time, but include a note that additional measures may
be required at the request of the County Inspector. (Rev. 2) Addressed.
The VSM P 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, erosion and sediment control and stormwater management improvements must be bonded.
The bonding process begins when the plan is approved, and the applicant submits a bond estimate request
form and fee to the Department of Community Development. A plan reviewer 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. [ WPO Plan bond posted 11/22/22.]
Stormwater Management Facilities Maintenance agreements will also need to be completed and recorded.
The County's Management Analyst or other staff will prepare the forms and check for ownership and
signature information. The completed forms will need to be submitted to the County, who will record the

agreement. [ Agreement recorded as INST # 202200012894 ]
After bonding and agreements are complete, county staff enters project information in a DEQ database for
state application processing, if a DEQ permit is required. DEQ reviews 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, which must be posted at the construction site.
After DEQ coverage is issued [ DEQ coverage not required, LOD =0.82 Ac.], via the coverage letter, the
County can hold a pre -construction conference. Applicants must complete the request for a pre -construction
conference form and pay the remainder of the application fee. [iaepaidlZ%nj
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 "emsMP and
grading permit will be issued by the County so that work may begin.
County forms can be found on the county website forms center under Engineering
