MISSING ELEMENTS
1. Outreach
- Enhance technical and
financial assistance to localities to implement the CBPA
- Expand public
education using all types of media
- Expand
program/methods to reduce ag, golf course and lawn use of chemicals
2. Regulation
- Required use of
pumpout facilities
- Implement no
discharge zones
- VDH complete effort
to identify/repair/replace failing septic systems
- Identify and enforce
areas unsuitable for septic system placement
- Full enforcement of 5
year septic pump-out requirement
- Full enforcement of
the 100' buffer/increase riparian buffers
- VDH/DEQ complete and
enforce source water protection plans
- VDACS better
enforcement of Ag Stewardship Act
- SW mandate stormwater
ordinance implementation
- E&S full local
implementation
3. Authority
- Develop
statutory authority for impact fees and transferrable development rights
4. Monitoring
- Develop
effective/adequate monitoring of water quality throughout the coastal
zone (especially seaside Eastern shore, small streams, public beaches)
5. Planning/coordination
- Establish
coordination between state programs, and state and local management
programs
- Support efforts for
infill development, capacity planning
- Develop shoreline
management protocol
6. Research
- WQ and sed.
probs due to legacy contamination
7. Definition of management targets
- Define “safe”
- Develop “endpoints”
for ocean coastal waters
