Curious as to the agency’s and board’s authority to regulate and/or prohibit any homeowner from doing anything with his own waste on his own land. Section 10.1-1400 of the Code of Virginia specifically spells out solid waste the agency and board can regulate. While community activities are to be regulated, private citizens and their activities on their own land with their own waste are not included. Local ordinances would apply via different applications of Code sections, but where is this authority granted to either the agency or the board by the Genera Assembly?  Just because you think it might be a good idea, isn’t sufficient. Please cite the statutory authority for regulating household activities by homeowners on their own land. Thank you.
