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 With Conditions.
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. The existing on -site SWPPP for this project will be updated upon final approval of this project submittal.
B. Pollution Prevention Plan (PPP)
The PPP content requirements can be found in County Code section 17 -404.
1. The existing on site PPP for this project will be updated upon final approval of this project submittal.
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. This amendment appears to be adequately addressed with the existing SWM plan. The proposed tree
and vegetation cover will address the post construction SWM concerns.
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 denied, 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. The proposed grading on VDOT right -of -way will need VDOT approval.
The areas that drain across VDOT right -of -way or encroach onto VDOT right -of -way will be constructed of
"Clean Fill Material ". It is recommended to construct a berm along the edge of proposed area adjacent to
VDOT right -of -way with the clean fill material to prevent the potential contamination of off -site properties.
2. Plans are "Not for Construction" and can't be approved as submitted. Please submit 2 "For Construction"

plan sets for approval.
Comment has been adequately addressed.
The existing bond will need to be replaced with a new bond covering this site. Please request a bond
amount to complete the grading permit process.
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.
