DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY

Water Quality Improvement Plan for Chestnut Creek

The Virginia Department of Environmental Quality will hold a public meeting to present the draft water quality improvement plan for reducing agricultural, residential, and urban sources of fecal bacteria and sediment in Chestnut Creek (Carroll and Grayson Counties and the City of Galax) on Tuesday, May 26, 2015. The meeting will be held from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Galax Public Library Meeting Room, 610 West Stuart Drive, Galax, Virginia.

Segments of Chestnut Creek do not meet state water quality standards for fecal bacteria (i.e., E. coli) and aquatic life. Elevated levels of E. coli indicate an increased risk of illness for people who come in contact with water in the affected streams. Identified sources of E. coli in these watersheds include failing septic systems, discharges of untreated human waste (i.e., straight pipes), pets, and livestock waste. Low aquatic life scores in Chestnut Creek are affected by sedimentation and are an indication of reduced water quality. Sediment sources include stream channel erosion, runoff from pastureland and cropland, and stormwater runoff from residential and urban areas.

The public meeting provides an opportunity for citizens and interested parties to ask questions and provide comments on the plan. The meeting will begin a 30-day period during which written public comments on the plan will be accepted. The comment period will close on June 26.

Questions, information requests, and comments should be addressed to Chris L. Burcher, Nonpoint Source Pollution Coordinator, Department of Environmental Quality, 355-A Deadmore Street, Abingdon, VA 24210, email chris.burcher@deq.virginia.gov, or telephone (276) 676-4803.
