Comment Period | Ended on 10/29/2021 |
I am a member of the Accomack-Northampton Counties Groundwater committee, appointed by the Northampton County Board of Supervisors. I am writing in support of this regulation as it will help to protect the sole source drinking water aquifer in Accomack and Northampton Counties. While I do not speak for the Groundwater committee or Northampton County, it is my understanding that this regulation has long been a goal of both. I appreciate the efforts of DEQ Groundwater staff in helping to protect the ground water quality and quantity through this regulation. Very truly yours, Roberta Kellam
