Current through Register Vol. 40, No. 24, July 15, 2024
A.
				  At a minimum, Resource Protection Areas shall consist of lands adjacent to
				  water bodies with perennial flow that have an intrinsic water quality value due
				  to the ecological and biological processes they perform or are sensitive to
				  impacts which may cause significant degradation to the quality of state waters.
				  In their natural condition, these lands provide for the removal, reduction or
				  assimilation of sediments, nutrients and potentially harmful or toxic
				  substances in runoff entering the bay and its tributaries, and minimize the
				  adverse effects of human activities on state waters and aquatic
				  resources.
B. The Resource
				  Protection Area shall include:
1. Tidal
				  wetlands;
2. Nontidal wetlands
				  connected by surface flow and contiguous to tidal wetlands or water bodies with
				  perennial flow;
3. Tidal shores;
				  and
4. Such other lands considered
				  by the local government to meet the provisions of subsection A of this section
				  and to be necessary to protect the quality of state waters.
5. A buffer area not less than 100 feet in
				  width located adjacent to and landward of the components listed in subdivisions
				  1 through 4 of this subsection, and along both sides of any water body with
				  perennial flow. The full buffer area shall be designated as the landward
				  component of the Resource Protection Area notwithstanding the presence of
				  permitted uses, encroachments, and permitted vegetation clearing in compliance
				  with Part IV (9VAC25-830-120 et seq.) of this
				  chapter.

				  Resource Management Areas shall include land types that, if improperly used or
				  developed, have a potential for causing significant water quality degradation
				  or for diminishing the functional value of the Resource Protection
				  Area.
B. A Resource Management Area
				  shall be provided contiguous to the entire inland boundary of the Resource
				  Protection Area. The following land categories shall be considered for
				  inclusion in the Resource Management Area and, where mapping resources indicate
				  the presence of these land types contiguous to the Resource Protection Area,
				  should be included in designations of Resource Management Areas:
1. Floodplains;
2. Highly erodible soils, including steep
				  slopes;
3. Highly permeable
				  soils;
4. Nontidal wetlands not
				  included in the Resource Protection Area; and

Current through Register Vol. 40, No. 24, July 15, 2024
A. At
				  their option, local governments may designate Intensely Developed Areas as an
				  overlay of Chesapeake Bay Preservation Areas within their jurisdictions. For
				  the purposes of this chapter, Intensely Developed Areas shall serve as
				  redevelopment areas in which development is concentrated as of the local
				  program adoption date. Areas so designated shall comply with the performance
				  criteria for redevelopment in Part IV (
				  9VAC25-830-120 et seq.) of this
				  chapter.
B. Local governments
				  exercising this option shall examine the pattern of residential, commercial,
				  industrial and institutional development within Chesapeake Bay Preservation
				  Areas. Areas of existing development and infill sites where little of the
				  natural environment remains may be designated as Intensely Developed Areas
				  provided at least one of the following conditions existed at the time the local
				  program was originally adopted:
1.
				  Development has severely altered the natural state of the area such that it has
				  more than 50% impervious surface;
2. Public sewer and water systems, or a
				  constructed stormwater drainage system, or both, have been constructed and
				  served the area by the original local program adoption date. This condition
				  does not include areas planned for public sewer and water or constructed
				  stormwater drainage systems; or
3.
				  Housing density is equal to or greater than four dwelling units per
				  acre.

Current through Register Vol. 40, No. 24, July 15, 2024
Local governments shall, as part of their
					 plan-of-development review process pursuant to subdivision 1 e of
					 9VAC25-830-240 or during their
					 review of a water quality impact assessment pursuant to subdivision 6 of
					 9VAC25-830-140, ensure or confirm
					 that (i) a reliable, site-specific evaluation is conducted to determine whether
					 water bodies on or adjacent to the development site have perennial flow and
					 (ii) Resource Protection Area boundaries are adjusted, as necessary, on the
					 site, based on this evaluation of the site. Local governments may accomplish
					 this by either conducting the site evaluations themselves or requiring the
					 person applying to use or develop the site to conduct the evaluation and submit
					 the required information for review.

Current through Register Vol. 40, No. 24, July 15, 2024
A. The purpose of
				  this part is to achieve the goals of the Act and
				  9VAC25-830-50 by establishing
				  criteria to implement the following objectives: prevent a net increase in
				  nonpoint source pollution from new development and development on previously
				  developed land where the runoff was treated by a water quality protection best
				  management practice, achieve a 10% reduction in nonpoint source pollution from
				  development on previously developed land where the runoff was not treated by
				  one or more water quality best management practices, and achieve a 40%
				  reduction in nonpoint source pollution from agricultural and silvicultural
				  uses.
B. In order to achieve these
				  goals and objectives, the criteria in this part establish performance standards
				  to minimize erosion and sedimentation potential, reduce land application of
				  nutrients and toxics, maximize rainwater infiltration, and ensure the long-term
				  performance of the measures employed.
C. The criteria in this part become mandatory
				  upon the local program adoption date. They are supplemental to the various
				  planning and zoning concepts employed by local governments in granting,
				  denying, or modifying requests to rezone, subdivide, or to use and develop land
				  in Chesapeake Bay Preservation Areas.
D. Local governments shall incorporate the
				  criteria in this part into their comprehensive plans, zoning ordinances and
				  subdivision ordinances, and may incorporate the criteria in this part into such
				  other ordinances and regulations as may be appropriate, in accordance with
				  §§ 62.1-44.15:74 and 62.1-44.15:76 of the Act and Parts V (
				  9VAC25-830-160 et seq.), VI (
				  9VAC25-830-180 et seq.), and VII (
				  9VAC25-830-200 et seq.) of this
				  chapter. The criteria may be employed in conjunction with other planning and
				  zoning concepts to protect the quality of state waters.
