The Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) will release the Final 2012 305(b)/303(d) Water Quality Assessment Integrated Report on January 27, 2014.
The Integrated Report combines both the 305(b) Water Quality Assessment and the 303(d) Report on Impaired Waters. The draft report was available for public comment March 26, 2012 through April 27, 2012. Comments were received from the public and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The report was slightly revised to address these comments and resubmitted to EPA on September 12, 2012. EPA approved the final report on December 12, 2013.
The final report, public comment-response document, and map images are available for download on the website: http://www.deq.virginia.gov/Programs/Water/WaterQualityInformationTMDLs/WaterQualityAssessments/2012305b303dIntegratedReport.aspx.
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 2012 assessment. Due to the cost of printing, hard copies are only available by special request.
