Permit name: State operating permit issued by DEQ, under the authority of the State Air Pollution Control Board.
Name, address, and registration number: O-N Minerals (Chemstone) Company, 1696 Oranda Road, Strasburg, VA 22657-3731, Registration No. 80252.
Description of proposal: The proposed revision is related to the control of emissions of particulate matter (PM), nitrogen oxides (NOX), and sulfur dioxide (SO2) to the atmosphere from O-N Minerals located in Shenandoah County, Virginia.
Virginia's regional haze regulation is found in Article 52 (9VAC5-40-7550 et seq.) of 9VAC5-40, Existing Stationary Sources. This regulation provides guidance for determining Best Available Retrofit Technology (BART). BART is required for any BART-eligible source that emits any air pollutant that may reasonably be anticipated to cause or contribute to visibility impairment in any federal Class I area. BART is an emission limitation based on the degree of reduction achievable through application of the best system of continuous emission reduction for each visibility-impairing pollutant emitted by an existing stationary facility established on a case-by-case basis. O-N Minerals is subject to these requirements, has undergone a BART analysis resulting in the application of BART controls, and has obtained a state operating permit containing BART controls that was submitted to EPA as a SIP revision on January 14, 2010.
The current proposed revision consists of a mutual and final determination between the source and DEQ, signed on May 4, 2010, that the one calcimatic kiln (U-l2) rated at 8.3 tons per hour of lime production is permanently shutdown. The state operating permit associated with this facility was then revised to reflect this change and signed on August 6, 2010.
Federal information: This notice is being given to satisfy the public participation requirements of federal regulations (40 CFR 51.102). The proposal will be submitted as a revision to the Commonwealth of Virginia SIP under § 110(a) of the federal Clean Air Act in accordance with 40 CFR 51.104.
How to comment: DEQ accepts written comments by email, fax, and postal mail. In order to be considered, written comments must include the full name, address, and telephone number of the person commenting and be received by DEQ by the last day of the comment period. Commenters providing faxes are encouraged to provide the signed original by postal mail within one week. All testimony, exhibits, and documents received are part of the public record.
To review proposal: The proposal and any supporting documents are available on the DEQ Air Public Notices for Plans website (http://www.deq.virginia.gov/air/permitting/planotes.html). The documents may also be obtained by contacting the DEQ representative named below.

Administrative Letter 2010-10
To: All Insurers Licensed and Recognized in Virginia
Re: Premium Tax and Assessment Practices and Procedures
Replacement of Administrative Letter 2009-10
This letter replaces Administrative Letter 2009-10. Pursuant to §§ 58.1-2506 and 38.2-406 of the Code of Virginia, the State Corporation Commission Bureau of Insurance has developed and requires the Virginia Tax Packet Payment Voucher (Payment Voucher) to be filed as part of the annual tax and assessment forms due March 1 of each year. The purpose of the Payment Voucher is to provide companies the ability to pay all amounts due with one check. Payments not submitted with the Payment Voucher cannot be processed by the bank. The entire Tax Packet (all tax and assessment forms and payments) will be returned to the insurer for proper filing. Penalties and interest will apply to any payments and the Late Form Filing Fine will apply to forms re-submitted after the due date. Approved software companies DO NOT have the Payment Voucher in their software. Download the Payment Voucher from our website: www.scc.virginia.gov/division/boi/webpages/boiinstaxinsurancecoinfo.htm. If you do not have access to the website, please call the Administrative Tax Unit at (804) 371-9096 to request the Payment Voucher.
The State Corporation Commission Bureau of Insurance will no longer refund monies collected as a result of companies' failure to properly complete the Retaliatory Tax Report. Companies later determining that funds were paid in error will have to apply via formal petition for the correction of taxes pursuant to § 58.1-2030 of the Code of Virginia. The application shall be by written petition, in duplicate and verified by affidavit.
Questions regarding this letter may be directed to: Keith D. Kelley, Administrative Tax Supervisor, State Corporation Commission, P.O. Box 1157, Richmond, VA 23218, telephone (804) 371-9333.

Administrative Letter 2010-11
To: All Companies Licensed In Virginia To Write Accident And Sickness Insurance, All Health Maintenance Organizations Licensed In Virginia, And All Health Services Plans Licensed In Virginia
Re: Virginia Small Employer Group Health Insurance Medical History Form;
Replacement of Administrative Letter 2009-04
In accordance with the provisions of House Bill 728 approved by the Virginia General Assembly during its 2008 legislative session, the Bureau of Insurance (the Bureau), with the assistance of a number of carriers and interested parties, developed the Virginia Small Employer Group Health Insurance Medical History Form to provide an optional format for facilitating and streamlining the application and enrollment process in Virginia's small employer market. A copy of the form, along with guidance for its use, was provided to carriers by Administrative Letter 2009-4, which further provided for future revision of the form as necessary and appropriate to address both regulatory changes and to meet the ongoing needs and relevance for those using the form. The attached form, identified as form # VAHLTHAPP9 10, and entitled Virginia Group Health Insurance Medical History Form, is the first revision of the form. Among other changes made at the request of carriers and other interested parties, the form was also revised to provide for its use in the large employer market as well as the small employer market, at the option of the carrier.
Provided the attached form is used in the exact format attached with no modifications except as otherwise noted below, insurers may use the form immediately without obtaining approval from the Bureau. The form is exempt from filing and approval requirements, in accordance with Virginia Code § 38.2-316 I. In order to facilitate a uniform transition to the attached revised form, carriers are strongly encouraged to discontinue use of the older version of the form by December 1, 2010.
Insurers, Health Services Plans, and Health Maintenance Organizations opting to use and accept the attached form should prepare and communicate their instructions for use and acceptance of the form to their respective agents and other interested parties. While it will generally be up to carriers to prepare and communicate instructions and guidelines for use of the form, the Bureau does expect and require all carriers to comply with the following general requirements:
· The full and proper corporate name of the insurer, health services plan or health maintenance organization must be recorded in Section 5 of the form. It is acceptable for a carrier to pre-print forms with the full and corporate name included, but sufficient space must be allowed for the entry of other carriers as well.
· Carriers are encouraged to include within their instructions for completion and return of the form, a prominent statement to the effect that completed forms should not, under any circumstances, be submitted to the Bureau.
· The type-size used in the form may be enlarged if a carrier so chooses, but it may not be reduced. Text may not be altered or changed.
· The form may be placed on a carrier's website or other electronic medium provided the format is not changed, or only minimal formatting changes are made to accommodate website specifications.
To the extent that future revisions to this form become necessary and appropriate, the Bureau will communicate such revisions to insurers and interested parties by Administrative Letter. To avoid confusion and facilitate uniformity in the use of each form revision, any and all new administrative letters addressing the use of this form will replace and supersede the prior administrative letter relating to the form and its use. Therefore, this administrative letter replaces Administrative Letter 2009-04 (and its attached Small Employer Group Health Insurance Medical History Form).
If you have any questions concerning the use of this form, please contact: Robert Grissom, Supervisor, Forms and Rates Section, Life and Health Division, Bureau of Insurance, State Corporation Commission, P.O. Box 1157, Richmond, VA 23218, telephone (804) 371-9152, FAX (804) 371-9944.

NOTICE OF PROTECTION PROVIDED BY VIRGINIA LIFE, ACCIDENT AND SICKNESS INSURANCE GUARANTY ASSOCIATION
This notice provides a brief summary of the Virginia Life, Accident and Sickness Insurance Guaranty Association ("the Association") and the protection it provides for policyholders. This safety net was created under Virginia law, which determines who and what is covered and the amounts of coverage.
The Association was established to provide protection in the unlikely event that a life, annuity or health insurance company licensed in the Commonwealth of Virginia becomes financially unable to meet its obligations and is taken over by its Insurance Department. If this should happen, the Association will typically arrange to continue coverage and pay claims, in accordance with Virginia law, with funding from assessments paid by other life and health insurance companies licensed in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
The basic protections provided by the Association are:
• Life Insurance
o $300,000 in death benefits
o $100,000 in cash surrender or withdrawal values
• Health Insurance
o $500,000 in hospital, medical and surgical insurance benefits
o $300,000 in disability [income] insurance benefits
o $300,000 in long-term care insurance benefits
o $100,000 in other types of health insurance benefits
• Annuities
o $250,000 in withdrawal and cash values
The maximum amount of protection for each individual, regardless of the number of policies or contracts, is $350,000, except for hospital, medical and surgical insurance benefits, for which the limit is increased to $500,000.
Note: Certain policies and contracts may not be covered or fully covered. For example, coverage does not extend to any portion(s) of a policy or contract that the insurer does not guarantee, such as certain investment additions to the account value of a variable life insurance policy or a variable annuity contract. There are also various residency requirements and other limitations under Virginia law.
To learn more about the above protections, please visit the Association's website at www.valifega.org or contact:

Insurance companies and agents are not allowed by Virginia law to use the existence of the Association or its coverage to encourage you to purchase any form of insurance. When selecting an insurance company, you should not rely on Association coverage. If there is any inconsistency between this notice and Virginia law, then Virginia law will control.

Total Maximum Daily Loads for Browns Run
DEQ and the Department of Conservation and Recreation seek written and oral comments from interested persons on the development of an Implementation Plan (IP) for bacteria total maximum daily loads (TMDLs) on a 2.39 mile stream segment of Browns Run, 3.61 mile segment of Craig Run, and a 8.16 mile segment of Marsh Run in Fauquier County. The TMDLs for these stream impairments were completed in January 2008 and can be found in the Upper Rappahannock River Basin Report on DEQ's website at http://www.deq.virginia.gov/tmdl/apptmdls/rapprvr/
urappaec.pdf.
Section 62.1-44.19:7 C of the Code of Virginia requires the development of an IP for approved TMDLs. The IP should provide measurable goals and the date of expected achievement of water quality objectives. The IP should also include the corrective actions needed and their associated costs, benefits, and environmental impacts.
The second public meeting on the development of the IP for the bacteria TMDLs will be held on Tuesday, November 16, 2010, at 7 p.m. at the Cedar Lee Middle School, 11138 Marsh Road (Route 17), in Bealton, Virginia. At this meeting, the draft implementation plan to restore surface water quality in Browns Run, Craig Run, and Marsh Run will be presented to the public.
The 30-day public comment period on the draft implementation plan will begin on November 16 and will end on December 15, 2010. A fact sheet on the development of an IP for the Browns, Craig, and Marsh Runs is available upon request. Questions or information requests should be addressed to Bob Slusser at the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation. Written comments and inquiries should include the name, address, and telephone number of the person submitting the comments and should be sent to Bob Slusser, Department of Conservation and Recreation, email bob.slusser@dcr.virginia.gov, telephone (540) 351-1590.
Announcement of Public Meeting for Implementation Planning Meetings for the James River and Tributaries Bacteria Impairments in Richmond City, and Chesterfield, Henrico, and Powhatan Counties, Virginia
Public meeting: A public meeting will be held on Tuesday, November 16, 2010, to "kick-off" the Implementation Planning (IP) phase of the James River – City of Richmond total maximum daily load (TMDL) study. An evening meeting will be held at 6 p.m. at the Department of Environmental Quality, Piedmont Regional Office, 4949-A Cox Road, Glen Allen, VA 23060.
Purpose of notice: DEQ will host a public meeting to provide an overview of the IP process that will incorporate results of the recently completed TMDL study. A 30-day public comment period beginning on November 17, 2010, and ending on December 27, 2010, will allow preliminary stakeholder input for the IP development.
Meeting description: DEQ seeks to gain interest of all watershed stakeholders as part of the Implementation Planning process. The goal of the IP process is to outline a plan for reaching the reduction goals of the completed TMDL study. The plan will identify the types and areas where best management practices may be placed in order to mitigate the bacteria pollution in the waterways. The plan will also identify funding opportunities and estimate the costs of remedial efforts. This is the first public meeting for the IP process and will be followed by work-group meetings and steering committee meetings. Work-groups will be comprised of voluntary members for specific watershed stakeholder groups (residential, business, agricultural, government, etc.) and will meet to discuss watershed issues, identify opportunities for mitigation, and provide suggestions for the overall IP. There will be work-group sign up sheets at the "kick-off" meeting for those who would like to participate. The steering committee will meet in order to shape the IP document by analyzing, organizing, and formatting the information compiled from work-group suggestions and will be comprised of members who volunteer or are nominated from the work-groups.
Description of plan: Virginia agencies developed a study to identify sources of the bacterial contamination in the waters of the James River and it's tributaries in the following jurisdictions:
| Stream | County/City | Length (mi.) | Impairment |
| Bernards Creek | Chesterfield, Powhatan | 6.95 | Bacteria (Primary Contact Use) |
| Powhite Creek | Chesterfield, Richmond City | 8.13 |
| Reedy Creek | Richmond City | 3.69 |
| James River | Richmond City | 2.99 |
| Gillie Creek | Richmond City, Henrico | 5.75 |
| Almond Creek | Henrico | 2.08 |
| Goode Creek | Richmond City | 1.22 |
| Falling Creek | Chesterfield | 3.10 |
| No Name Creek | Chesterfield | 2.07 |
| James River | Chesterfield, Henrico, Richmond City | 6.75 |
These streams are impaired for failure to meet the primary contact (recreational) designated use because of bacteria standard violations. The study reported the sources of bacterial contamination and recommended TMDLs for the impaired waters. A TMDL is the total amount of a pollutant a water body can contain and still meet water quality standards. To restore water quality, bacterial levels have to be reduced to the TMDL amount. The report, which was submitted to EPA on September 30, 2010, is available on the DEQ website: http://www.deq.virginia.gov/tmdl/drftmdls/jamesg3.pdf.
Plan development: The development of an Implementation Plan includes a minimum of two public meetings and two public comment periods prior to submitting the final draft IP to the State Water Control Board for approval. Implementation plan development is required by Virginia state law under the Water Quality Monitoring, Information, and Reporting Act (WQMIRA).
How to comment: DEQ accepts written comments by email, fax, or postal mail. Written comments should include the name, address, and telephone number of the person commenting and be received by DEQ during the comment period, which will begin on November 17, 2010, and end on December 27, 2010.

Filing Material for Publication in the Virginia Register of Regulations: Agencies are required to use the Regulation Information System (RIS) when filing regulations for publication in the Virginia Register of Regulations. The Office of the Virginia Register of Regulations implemented a web-based application called RIS for filing regulations and related items for publication in the Virginia Register. The Registrar's office has worked closely with the Department of Planning and Budget (DPB) to coordinate the system with the Virginia Regulatory Town Hall. RIS and Town Hall complement and enhance one another by sharing pertinent regulatory information.
The Office of the Virginia Register is working toward the eventual elimination of the requirement that agencies file print copies of regulatory packages. Until that time, agencies may file petitions for rulemaking, notices of intended regulatory actions, and general notices in electronic form only; however, until further notice, agencies must continue to file print copies of proposed, final, fast-track, and emergency regulatory packages.
