Comment on Virginia Stormwater Management Program (VSMP) Permit Regulation?s (4VAC50-60?)
 

Hello,

I am writing in support of reinstituting public availability of SWPPPs.  I know that Shenandoah Riverkeeper, Upper James Riverkeeper, and Chesapeake Bay Foundation have all used the SWPPPs as a tool to monitor and get the most polluted construction sites cleaned up, like the Hot Lanes addition to the Beltway.

Please put the provision back in the permit so that citizens can obtain SWPPPs from construction sites.

Thank you for your consideration,
