SUMMARY AS PASSED:
Virginia Water Protection Permits; multiagency review. Requires that agencies having an opportunity to comment on a Virginia Water Protection Permit submit such comments within 45 days or be deemed as having approved the permit without further opportunity to comment. Currently, agencies such as the Department of Game and Inland Fisheries, the Department of Conservation and Recreation, the Virginia Marine Resources Commission, the Department of Health, and the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services must provide comments within 45 days, but the consequences of a failure to do so in a timely manner are not set out. This bill is identical to SB 1021 (Puckett).
