  • The county hereby adopts the Watershed Map dated July 31, 2019. The Watershed Map shows: (1) the boundaries of the county; (2) the boundaries of each watershed located partially or wholly within the county; (3) the percentage of impervious cover within each watershed; and (4) the locations where development is expected or proposed to occur. A copy of said map shall be filed in the office of the clerk of the circuit court.

    For determining the water quantity technical criteria applicable to any land disturbance equal to or greater than 2,500 square feet but less than one acre, the county shall use tiered water control standards based on the percentage of impervious cover in the watershed. The tiered approach shall be consistent with the applicable regulations of the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality. The basis for this tiered approach shall be the Watershed Map of the county.
