Guidance Document Change: The Code of Virginia (ยง 62.1-44.15:28 A 9) and the Virginia Stormwater Management Program (VSMP) Regulation (9VAC25-870-65 and 9VAC25-870-96) allow for the use of approved proprietary best management practices (BMPs). This guidance provides procedures used by the Department of Environmental Quality (Department or DEQ) to approve proprietary BMPs. Approved proprietary BMPs are listed on the Virginia Stormwater BMP Clearinghouse with an assigned total phosphorus (TP) pollutant removal efficiency. The proprietary BMPs listed on the Virginia Stormwater BMP Clearinghouse can be used to meet the water quality design criteria established in 9VAC25-870-65 and 9VAC25-870-96. This document replaces Guidance Memo No. 14-2009.

Comment on proposed Guidance Memo No. GM21-2006
 

No attachment 1 was provided in the guidance document (as referenced below).     Please provide this so that people can review.

Application Process: To apply for approval in Virginia, complete the attached form entitled “Proprietary BMP Registration Statement” (Attachment 1) and submit it to the Department. Once the registration statement and supporting documentation are received, the Department will review the submission and if approved, assign the applicable percent TP removal efficiency based on Table 1. After the percent removal has been assigned, this value will be added to the Virginia Stormwater BMP Clearinghouse and can be used to meet the water quality design criteria requirements.
