Purpose of notice: The Virginia Department of Environmental Quality and the Department of Conservation and Recreation are announcing a study to restore water quality for a shellfish growing area, a public comment opportunity, and two public meetings.
Meeting description: First public meetings on a study to restore water quality for shellfish growing areas of the Rappahannock River near Tappahannock, Garret's Marina, and Mark Haven Beach that are impaired due to bacterial violations.
Description of study: Virginia agencies are working to identify sources of the bacterial contamination in the shellfish growing waters of these (tidal) creeks including their tributaries. These condemnations include a total area of approximately 9.7 square miles in portions of Essex, Richmond, Westmoreland, and Northumberland Counties. These streams are impaired for failure to meet the designated use of shellfish consumption because of bacterial water quality standard violations.
Stream | Counties Within Watershed | Area (miles2) | Impairment |
Upper Rappahannock River, Little Carter Creek, Jugs Creek | Essex, Richmond, Westmoreland, Northumberland | 9.73 |
Shellfish Use (Fecal Coliform) bacteria |
Mark Haven Beach | Essex | 0.014 | |
Garret's Marina | Essex | 0.029 |
The study reports the current status of the creeks via sampling performed by the Virginia Department of Health - Division of Shellfish Sanitation, shellfish area condemnations and the possible sources of bacterial contamination. The study recommends total maximum daily loads, or TMDLs, for the impaired waters. A TMDL is the total amount of a pollutant a water body can contain and still meet water quality standards. To restore water quality, bacterial levels have to be reduced to the TMDL amount.
How to comment: DEQ accepts written comments by email, fax, or postal mail. Written comments should include the name, address, and telephone number of the person commenting and be received by DEQ during the comment period, which will expire on October 29, 2009.

VIRGINIA CODE COMMISSION
Notice to State Agencies
Mailing Address: Virginia Code Commission, 910 Capitol Street, General Assembly Building, 2nd Floor, Richmond, VA 23219.
Cumulative Table of Virginia Administrative Code Sections Adopted, Amended, or Repealed
Beginning with Volume 26, Issue 1 of the Virginia Register of Regulations dated September 14, 2009, the Cumulative Table of Virginia Administrative Code Sections Adopted, Amended, or Repealed will no longer be published in the Virginia Register of Regulations. The cumulative table can still be accessed on the Virginia Register Online webpage at http://register.dls.virginia.gov/cumultab.htm.
Filing Material for Publication in the Virginia Register of Regulations
Agencies are required to use the Regulation Information System (RIS) when filing regulations for publication in the Virginia Register of Regulations. The Office of the Virginia Register of Regulations implemented a web-based application called RIS for filing regulations and related items for publication in the Virginia Register. The Registrar's office has worked closely with the Department of Planning and Budget (DPB) to coordinate the system with the Virginia Regulatory Town Hall. RIS and Town Hall complement and enhance one another by sharing pertinent regulatory information.
The Office of the Virginia Register is working toward the eventual elimination of the requirement that agencies file print copies of regulatory packages. Until that time, agencies may file petitions for rulemaking, notices of intended regulatory actions and general notices in electronic form only; however, until further notice, agencies must continue to file print copies of proposed, final, fast-track and emergency regulatory packages.
