The Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) will release the Final 2008 305(b)/303(d) Water Quality Assessment Integrated Report (Integrated Report) by December 22, 2008.
The Integrated Report combines both the 305(b) Water Quality Assessment and the 303(d) Report on Impaired Waters. This report was available for public comment from June 16, 2008 through July 25, 2008. Comments were received from the public and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). In response to comments, the report was slightly revised and resubmitted to EPA on October 31, 2008 and later approved.
The final report, responses to written comments, and map images are available for download on our website at http://www.deq.virginia.gov/wqa/. Copies are available at no charge on CD-ROM (limit one per person) by request via the webpage or via phone at (804) 698-4191. These CD-ROMs include the entire final report, all of its appendices, and a digital book of maps developed from the 2008 assessment. Due to the cost of printing, hard copies are only available by special request.
