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 Approved. The
rationale is given in the comments below. 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.
1. Appears to meet the minimum requirements for approval.
B. Pollution Prevention Plan (PPP)
The PPP content requirements can be found in County Code section 17 -404.
1. Appears to meet the minimum requirements for approval.
C. Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP)
VSMP Regulation 9VAC25- 870 -108 requires the VSMP authority to approve or disapprove a
SWMP. This plan is approved, and the reasons are provided in the comments below. The
stormwater management plan content requirements can be found in County Code section 17 -403.
1. Appears to meet the minimum requirements for approval.
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 approved, and the reasons are provided in the comments below. The erosion control
plan content requirements can be found in County Code section 17 -402.
It is understood that the site work is an in ground installation of a cast in place concrete water storage tank
and the excavation will catch most of the stormwater during construction. The rain water will need to be
pumped out into a filtering device. It is assumed the tank will be covered with soil and vegetation after the
project is constructed. The soil depth should be Eight inches (or even more) is preferred. Without deep

soil, grass will dry out quickly and die off easily. Topsoil will need to be saved to recover the excavation to
field grass. The following is a list of comments /recommendations for approval of this project:
1. Please show the stockpile area for the topsoil that will be utilized to reestablish the field grass.
Item appears adequately addressed at this time.
2. Please show a Filtering device for the water to be pumped from the excavation. Trenching to drain
the excavation will require a sediment trap /filtering device below the outlet.
Item appears adequately addressed at this time.
3. Additional silt fence should be shown below the CIP for the new pipe under the existing road, or a
sump area shown that will hold the 10 year storm event until the water can filter through the silt
fence culvert protection.
Item appears adequately addressed at this time.
4. The construction area appears too small for the construction crew parking, supplies, Concrete
pump truck and concrete delivery and turn around area. This office suggests showing a larger
work area for construction. The excavated soil could be used to create a "temporary" staging area.
Item appears adequately addressed at this time.
5. There appears to be an existing water line to this project site. Please label the water line as
existing if this is a true statement. If this is a new water line it will need to be included in the
project limits.
Item appears adequately addressed at this time.
6. The vicinity map should be updated for this project. The map currently shows this project on the
Monticello property instead of the Montalto property.
Item appears adequately addressed at this time.
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.
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 along with court recording fees.
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.
County forms can be found on the county website forms center under engineering;
