| Purpose of the meeting PURPOSE OF THE MEETING: The Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) will host the Second Community Engagement meeting for the Horsepen Creek, Little Roanoke Creek, and an unnamed tributary to Spencer Creek Watershed Restoration Plan on Wednesday June 25, 2025. The meeting is open to the public and any member of the public may participate in the proceedings. The meeting participants will assist in development of a Watershed Restoration Plan, also known as an Advance Restoration Plan, to address aquatic life impairments of Horsepen Creek, Little Roanoke Creek, and an unnamed tributary to Spencer Creek in Charlotte county, which have been listed on Virginia’s § 303(d) list of impaired waters for failing to meet Virginia’s water quality standards due to an altered benthic community. An Advance Restoration Plan outlines actions to achieve water quality standards and restore impaired waters. The meeting will discuss the project goals and land use within the watersheds. Information about this plan development can be found here: https://www.deq.virginia.gov/our-programs/water/water-quality/implementation/implementation-plans-under-development. In the event of inclement weather, the meeting will be held on July 2, 2025 at the same time and location stated above.
