| Purpose of the meeting The Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) will host the second Community Engagement meeting for the North Fork Rivanna River Watershed Cleanup Plan on September 24th, 2024. The meeting is open to the public and any member of the public may participate in the proceedings. The meeting participants will assist in the development of a cleanup plan, also known as an Implementation Plan (IP), to address both bacteria and benthic impairments of the North Fork Rivanna River watershed in Albemarle and Greene counties, which have been listed in Virginia’s § 303(d) list of impaired waters for failing to meet Virginia’s water quality standards due to an exceedance in E. coli and for failure to support aquatic life. The meeting will discuss recommendations on implementation strategies, associated costs, outreach, and funding opportunities, and begin discussion of the draft report. Information about this plan development can be found here under the “North Fork Rivanna River” drop down: https://www.deq.virginia.gov/our-programs/water/water-quality/implementation/implementation-plans-under-development. | |
