Introduced by: R. Creigh Deeds | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles | history

SUMMARY AS PASSED:

Voluntary remediation of contaminated properties. Expands the voluntary remediation program for properties owned by local governments. The bill (i) eliminates the requirement that local governments pay registration fees when voluntarily remediating their properties, (ii) creates the Virginia Voluntary Remediation Fund, which would provide grants to local governments to help encourage remediation of contaminated properties, and (iii) provides that loans may be made to local governments from the Virginia Water Facilities Revolving Fund for the remediation of contaminated properties to reduce ground water contamination. The provisions of the bill with respect to registration fees and the creation of the Voluntary Remediation Fund will not become effective unless funds are appropriated in the 2001, 2002, 2003 or 2004 budgets to carry out those provisions.
