Section 816.152. Existing roads

Where existing roads that are to be used meet the performance standards of 4VAC25-130-816.150 and 4VAC25-130-816.151 or it can be demonstrated that reconstruction to meet the design standards of 4VAC25-130-816.150 and 4VAC25-130-816.151 would result in greater environmental harm, the division may waive the design requirements of those sections; however, such roads are to be constructed and maintained to control or prevent erosion. Review will place emphasis on stabilization and the water control system.
