Introduction
The Virginia Marine Resources Commission ("Commission" or 'VMRC"), as
provided in Chapter 12 of Title 28.2 of the Code of Virginia, is the State agency
responsible for issuing permits for encroachments in, on, or over State-owned
submerged lands throughout the Commonwealth. The Commission has possessed this
regulatory authority since 1962, and currently processes approximately 2,000
applications, and issues nearly 500 permits annually. Virginia is only 'One of the six
"low water states" and as such maintains ownership of all submerged lands
channelward of the mean low water mark in tidal waters, and regulatory authority
channelward of the ordinary high water mark on most naturally occurring nontidal
perennial streams, creeks and rivers.

In addition to managing the Commonwealth's 1,472,000 acres of submerged
lands, the Commission also regulates the use or development of tidal wetlands and
coastal primary sand dunes pursuant to the provisions of Chapters 13 and 14 of
Title 28.2 of the Code of Virginia. Local govemrnments in Tidewater Virginia are
provided the option of adopting and locally administering the wetlands and dune zoning
ordinances. VMRC, however maintains original jurisdiction in localities which have not
adopted the ordinances. Even if locally adopted and implemented, the Commission
retains certain oversight responsibilities and reviews all decisions made by those local
wetlands boards. Figure 1. shows the localities within Tidewater Virginia and the 35
that have adopted the wetlands ordinance and the six counties out of eight that have
adopted the dunes ordinance.
The regulatory activities conducted by the Commission and the 35 local
wetlands boards are integral components of Virginia's approved Coastal Zone
Management Program. The permit review processes used by the Commission and
these local wetlands boards ensures that necessary economic development is
permitted in a manner which minimizes adverse impacts to the valuable natu-ral
resources within our coastal zone.

Permit compliance is a mandatory component of any effective regulatory
program. As such, it is essential that the terms and conditions contained in the permit
documents be followed, if the full benefits of the regulatory program are to be realized.
Without such permit compliance, the regulatory process breaks down and serves only
as an increased bureaucracy.
In order to evaluate compliance with permits issued by VMRC and foral wetlands
boards a survey, funded in part by CRMP grant # NA90AA-H-CZ96, was conducted in
1991. The compliance survey was designed to investigate and gauge the effectiveness
of the various compliance monitoring programs currently utilized by VMRC and the
local wetlands boards. The survey was intended to both identify existing compliance

shortcomings and to ascertain effective compliance monitoring techniques, in order to
enable VMRC to develop concise recommendations to enhance compliance monitoring
programs.

The purpose of this grant project was to continue the implementation of
recommendations of the 1991 Permit Compliance and Inspection Program report and
continue a standardized permit compliance program for those permits issued by the
Commission within the Coastal Zone. In addition commission staff assessed permit
compliance for wetland projects authorized in 1994. The latter was designed as a follow
up to the previous compliance inspections conducted for projects permitted in I 989,
1990, 1991, 1992, and 1993.

This document is intended to serve as the final report for Task 13 of Grant No.
NA570Z0561 -01 and provides an overview of the steps taken to continue the
compliance monitoring program and a review of the compliance data gathered during
the grant year. Compliance data gathered during the previous years is also included.

Permit Comniance Proaram Overview
In the December 1991 Habitat Management Division - Special Report
(Attachment A), five recommendations were made for VMRC to enhance permit
compliance efforts.
1.	Require detailed drawings for all projects requiring a VMRC permit.

2.	Require accurate benchmarks or reference points on the plan view
drawing(s).

3.    Require Engineers to -take an adequate number of slides during the initial site
visit to illustrate pre-construction conditions.
4.    Require Engineers to conduct post-construction inspections at all sites
permitted by VMRC.
5.    Incorporate the data collected from the post-construction inspections into
the Habitat Management Division's computer data base.


In 1993 with funding provided by CZM Grant No NA2702031 2-11 these
recommendations were incorporated into the Commission compliance monitoring
program through several mechanisms. The Joint Permit Application (Attachment B)
was amended to reflect the need for more detailed drawings with accurate benchmarks.
New conditions were incorporated into Commission permits requiring that a permit
placard (Attachment C) be posted at the project site and procedures were established
for the Commission to receive notice when project construction is started. The latter
was accomplished through the use of a self-addressed stamped card (Attachment D)
which is returned to the Commission, by the permiftee. Special conditions related to
permit compliance have been added to all permits issued by VMRC. Examples of these
can be found in the attached sample permit (Attachment E).
Furthermore, procedures have currently been established within the Habitat
Management Division to require that the Division's Environmental Engineers inspect all
permitted projects. These procedures require that photos be taken of the site before
and after construction, and that the final inspection be documented throughout the use
of a Project Compliance Assessmnent Report (Attachment F).
In addition, a compliance data base has been established to track compliance
monitoring efforts and results. The data for projects permitted by VMRC can be found in
(Attachment G). Prior to the 1994 grant year the compliance data base had been
separate from the Habitat Management Division's permit tracking data. The
4

-compliance data for projects permitted by VMRC is now incorporated into the new
Habitat Management Division permit tracking system. This systern is part of the
Agency's Local Area Network (LAN) and operates in a Windowed format using
Microsoft Access. The compliance data is entered and maintained by the Division's
Program Support Technician supported by the grant and the system is accessible by all
Division Staff.

Permit Comp3liance Survev Results
During the grant year (October 1, 1995 through September 30, 1996) a total of
273 compliance inspections were conducted by VMRC Habitat Management Division
Staff. This involved 187 inspections of projects permitted by VMRC and 86 inspections
permitted by local wetlands boards. The inspections for projects permitted by VMRC
followed receipt of the self-addressed stamped card indicating the project had been
started. In addition new procedures were established to ensure a response on all
permitted projects (Attachment H) . Prior to permit expiration, letters are sent to all
permiftees who have not returned the self-addressed stamped card. The letter
requests that they notify us of the project status. If the permittee reports the project is
complete, the project is inspected. If no response is received from our letter the site is
inspected upon permit expiration. The wetland projects were randomly selected from
projects permitted in 1994 in order to gauge complian'ce with wetland board permits
and to add the data to that collected for projects permitted in 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992
and 1993.

Previously, wetland projects and VMRC permits were randomly selected for
compliance inspections and both permit types were reported together in the previous
data. However, since initiation of the Habitat Management Division program to inspect
all VMRC permits in 1994 mostly wetland permits are reported on as a result of the
random selection process.
Compliance results for all inspections are grouped into the following five
categories:

I1.	Project not constructed.

2.	In compliance with the permit document.
3.	Moderately in compliance (the average additional encroachment did not
exceed 6 inches greater than the permitted alignment and had length an-d
square foot measurements which were no more than IO% greater than
authorized).
4.    Out of compliance (the average additional encroachmnent exceeded 6 inches
and the length square foot measurements were more than IO% greater
than authorized).
5.    Unable to determine compliance.

Compliance rates for the projects permitted by VMRC and inspected during the
grant year are shown in Figure 2. Cumulative totals for all VMRC permits inspec-ted
since initiation of the Habitat Management Division compliance program are shown in
Figure 3. These results show that compliance rates for VMRC permits issued since
1993 have remained relatively stable. While the overall data shows that 80% of the

.projects are found to be in compliance, only I% were found to be out of compliance.
The remainder were either in moderate compliance or the compliance could not be
determined. Although compliance could not be determined for 9% of the projects,
inspections in these cases did not indicate there were any permit violations. Most of
these cases involved dredging projects, underground pipelines, or situations where
actual measurements could not be taken.
Table 1. reflects the number of projects reviewed in each locality for permits
issued since '1989. Thirty-three localities were represented over the five year period.
Five hundred and thirty of the projects required a wetlands permit, 82 a VMRC
subaqueous permit and 103 required both. This represents a total review of 715
projects, which are summarized in Table 2.

The yearly results for 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993 and 1994 are shown in
Figures 4,5,6,7, and 8 respectively. The compliance rates for all permits (VMRC and
Wetlands) issued since 1989 have shown a significant improvement. On -average there
has been a 25% increase in the projects constructed which were deemed to be in
compliance. The average for projects deemed to be in compliance is 61 % since 1989.
In addition, the numbers for projects considered in moderate compliance are holding
around 12%. The projects found to be out of compliance rose 3 percentage points, but
still holds on average at only 3%, and the projects where compliance is not
determinable have dropped IO% on average.

Conclusion
Based on our review of the data collected and considering the improvements in
observed compliance rates, the program appears to be working. Our efforts, must
continue, however, if we are to ever approach the ultimate goal of I100% compliance on
all permitted projects. In order to achieve this goal we must continue our current
monitoring prograrn. Furthermore, we believe there are additional areas where we
must focus our attention.

At the local level, staffing and financial constraints continue to deter many
wetland boards from implementing a formal wetlands compliance program. Table 3.
provides an overview of compliance monitoring programs by locality. This table is
based on a VMRC staff evaluation of local programs rather than any comprehensive
survey. Therefore, some local programs could characterize their compliance efforts
differently. The table does, however, provide an indication of the range of effort at the
local level and provides, in conjunction with our compliance surveys, information
necessary to focus attention in areas where assistance may be needed the most.
Although we plan to continue inspections in all localities, we will attempt to provide
additional assistance in those areas which only have informal procedures for
compliance monitoring and which conduct very few compliance checks.

For projects requiring permits from the Commission, the compliance program
has led to better project drawings and the use of accurate benchmarks for improved
project monitoring. On the other hand, it has allowed us to identify those projects that
present a monitoring challenge. For example, compliance in dredging projects have
proven difficult to monitor. It is difficult to require the average homeowner to incur the
expense of a post dredge survey for a small dredging project under his pier slip.
As a result, special permit conditions have been developed that require pre-dredging
conferences and encourage post dredging surveys on large dredging projects. Even
with the special conditions, however this continues to be an area where we must
continue to focus our attention.

To date the compliance monitoring programn has allowed evaluation of the
effectiveness of our permit and monitoring procedures. As such, the monitoring
program can only improve our resource management responsibilities. Therefore,
permit compliance initiatives must continue to be a long term effort if we are to ensure
proper construction techniques and the protection of our valuable natural resources.
This effort, combined with the improvement of our permit tracking database and the
development of GIS capabilities, which we are still working towards, is necessary if we
are to realize the goal of making cumulative impact assessments a part of our wetlands
and submerged lands permitting program.

 INRODUCflON


The Virginia Marine Resources Commission
 ("the Commission" or "VMRC"), in conformance
with Section 62.1-3.of the Code of Virginia, is the
State agency responsible for issuing permits for en-
croachments in, on,-or over State-owned submerged
lands throughout the Commonwealth. The Com-
mission has possessed this regulatory authority
since 1962. We currently process over 2,000 appli-
cations and issue nearly 500 permits annually. Vir-
ginia is.a "low water state" and assumes jurisdiction
of submerged lands channelward of the mean low
water mark in tidal waters, and has regulatory
authority channelward of the ordinary high water
I     ï¿½* mark on most naiurally occurring nontidal peren-
nial streams.
In addition to managing the Commonwealth's
submerged lands, the Commission also regulates
certain activities in tidal wetlands and coastal pri-
mary sand dunes pursuant to Chapters 2.1 and 2.2
*      of Title 62.1 of the Code of Virginia. Local govern-
ments have the option to adopt and administer the
ordinance. VMRCasserts original jurisdiction in
those Tidewater localities which have not assumed
local regulation through the adoption of the model
wetlands and dunes ordinances. Even where lo-
)*  '   cally adopted and implemented, the Commission re-
tains oversight responsibilities for all decisions
made by those local wetlands boards'.
The regulatory activities conducted by the Com--
mission and the.34 local wetlands boards are inte-
gral'core components of Virginia's approved
Coastal Zone Management Program.. The permit re-
view processes used by the Commission and these
local wetlands boards ensures that necessary eco-
nomic development is permitted in a manner which
minimizes adverse impacts to the valuable natural re-
sources within our coastal zone.
* Permit compliance is.a mandatory component of any
.effective-regulatory program. As suich, it is essential that
tlie terms and conditions contained in those permit docu-
-'ments be followed if we aie to realize the full benefits of
the regulatory programn.  Without such permit compli-
ance, the regulatory process breaks down'and serves
. only to increase bureaucracy.
In July 1990, Senate Bill 183 became law (Ch. 881
Acts of Assembly 1990).' This legislation provided the
Commission and local wetlands boards with the author-
ity to issue restoration orders and assess civil charges for
violations of the applicable subaqueous, wetlands and
sand dune statutes. An ability to accurately determine
and monitor compliance with permit requirements is es-
senitial if the agency and wetlands boards are to effec-
tively carry out the intent of this legislation.
Unfortunately; Commission staff does not currently
have a standardized procedure for monitoring permit
compliance. Instead, the staff engineer assigned respon-
sibility for a particular locality will attempt to inspect
projects which are under construction or have been re-
cenitly completed. Quite often such compliance inspec-
tions are in response to the receipt of an inquiry or
complaint. Additionally, the Commission's marine law
enforcement personnel are often aware of permitted pro-
jects in their localities and occasionally make site inspec-
tions during the performance of their daily duties. In
either case, however, only a smallpercentage of the pro-
jects permitted by VMRC are routinely inspected for
compliance.
Permits issued by wetlands boards are also not al-
ways carefully reviewed for compliance upon project
completion. Independent studies conducted by Brad-
shaw (1990), Hershner et al. (1985) and a survey con-
ducted in conjunction with this project indicate that the
extent of permit compliance monitoring by local wet-
lands boards varies between localities. That effort

'COMPLIANCE SURVEY

The compliance survey was designed to investi-'" '
gate and gauge the effectiveness of the various com-.
- .. pliance monitoring programs currently utilized by
 VMRC and local wetlands boards. The survey was -
intended both to identify existing compliance shoit-:
comings and to ascertain effective compliance  '
monitdri,ng techniques in order to develop concise.
recommendations to enhance compliance monito.r-
ing programs.

Methods              ."

One hundred and forty (140) projects were ran- -
domly selected from a pool of 778 applications sub-
nmitted in 1989 for permits to use or d.eve!lop tidal '
wetlands or to encroach in, on, or over State-owned'
submerged land. Applicatibos for subaqueous per-
mits outside of the Tidewater region were excluded .
.*  , from the selection pool, as were applications which'
did not require a permit from either the local wet-
*         lands board or VMRC. Also excluded were.applica-
tions which only requested authorization for private -
boathouses. Althoiugh more recently issued permits
could have been used, 1989 permits were selected
because it was believed that the majority of these
projects would likely have been constructed by the
time of the survey:
The 140 selected applications were screened-
and those applications which were submitted after-'
the-fact, involved only subaqueous dredging, or had
not yet received a permit due to delays or denial were
discarded. After screening, 120 projects remained in the
sample group. Prior to conducting the survey we con-
suited with Mr. Lyle VamelI and other members of the
Wetlands Department at the Virginia Institute' of Marine
: science and determrined that a sample size equal to or.
ï¿½ greatet than 120 should provide statistically significant
esults..

Permit activity per locality is highly variable. For ex-
ample in 1989 there were no applications received in
some localities while in others over 200 were reviewed.
Since permit activity varies widely between localities
and because the study hoped to draw conclusions on the

Categories 1,-2 and.3 were fairly straightforward and
easy to assess. The distinction between those projects
considered to be in moderate compliance or out of com-
pliance was more difficult to make and became some-
what subjective. As a rule, however, those projects
considered to be moderately in compliance possessed an
average additional encroachment which'did not exceed 6
inches greater than. the permitted-alignment, and had
length and square foot measurements 'which were no
more than 10% greater than that authorized. Those pro-
jects exceeding either of the above thresholds were con-
sidered to be out of compliance.    :

Results

The results of the survey are summarized in Table 2.
You will note that the survey results were subdivided
into rural and urban categories. 'This wvas done in an ef-
fort to ascertain if there were any demographic:differ-
ences in compliance levels. For the'purpose of this'
study, rural localities were defined as those having popu-
lation densities of less than 140 per square mile; urban
localities were defined as having population densities
greater than 140 per square mile.. The figures. for popula-
tion density ï¿½were obtained from the 1980 census by the.
U. S. Department of Commerce (Univ. of Virginia,
1987). This breakdown.was also patterned after that
used by Bradshaw (1990) in her compliance monitoring
study.
In addition to.providing.the raw numbers for the pro-
ï¿½ jects determined to be in a particular icategoiy; Table' 2
also provides the percentage of constructed pr.ojects -
which were categoiized by their level of compliance.'
These percentages are particulairly interesting when
evaluating the results. Especially noteworthy are the per-
centages of projects in which compliance could notbe
determined. -Figure'2 futther illustrates this information.

ï¿½overall effectiveness of permit compliance within
the coastal zone; no effort was made.to ensure that,
all localities were represented in the survey. In-
stead, it was anticipated that the random sample
would result in a sample group which more accu-
rately reflected the average permit activity per local-
ity. Therefore, the number of projects reviewed in
each locality varies according to the observed per-
mit activity in 1989.'
.  Twe nty-three (23) of the 49 Tidewater localities
were represented in the sample group.- Figure 1. and
Table I illustrate the Tidewater region and indicate
the number of projects reviewed in each locality.
 - Eighty-one (81) of the selected projects required
*      only a wetlands permnit,13 required only a subaque-
ï¿½ ous permit and 26 impacted bothjurisdictions and
required subaqueous as well as wetlands permits.
Site inspections were made of all the 120 se-
lected projects to determine the degree of.c.mpli-
ance. Results of the complia:nce inspections .were
grouped into five categories:.

1. Project not coristructed
2. Unable to determine compliance
3. In compliance with the permit document
4. Moderately in compliance with the permnit

5. Out of compliance _Wth the permit document

Due to the somewhat subjective nature of the data
and the low number of samples in some of the sub-
groups, no statistical tests for significance were at-
tempted. Nevertheless, there appears to be a discernible
difference between rural and urban localities in all the
categories other than "Moderate Compliance." A clearer
disparity exists, however, when the cities of.Virginia
Beach and Norfolk are factoied independently and then
compared to all other localities. This is presented in Ta-
ble 3 and illustrated in Figure 3.

Figure 3 clearly illustrates a disparity between the cit-
ies of Virginia Beach and Norfolk when comJiared to all
other Tidewater localities. Eighty-two (82) percent of
the completed projects reviewed in Virginia Beach and
Norfolk were determined to be in compliance, whereas
only 42% of all other projects reviewed were catego-
rized as "In Compliance". Also noteworthy is how simi-
lar the percentages of the urban and ruial localities
become once Virginia Beach and Norfolk are factored
out.

able. Compliance determinations are made more diffi-
cult when the person inspecting the constructed project
was not present during the initial site visit and is there-
fore unfamiliar with preconstruction conditions. With-
out the aid of precise.benchmarks or other means to
pinpoint the alignment of a project, compliance determi-
nations are difficult at best and frequently impossible:
As expected, the projects in localities that re_q&uire
more detailed application drawings and information ex-
hibited a higher percentage of determinable compliance.
This is illustrated in Figure 3. Compliance could be'de-
termrined at 91% of the sites inspected in Virginia Beach
and Norfolk.' Both of these localities require detailed
permit drawings with identifiable benchmarks.. Both
also regularly conduct post-construction compliance in-
spections. Additioially, Virgiriia Beach requires profes-
sionally engineered project drawingsagnd further
requires the permittees to -post performance bonds,.
.Those bonds are not released until post-construction:in--
spections have determined that projects are indeed in
compliance with the permit granted by the Boaird.
Not.only was compliance usually determinable at the'
Virginia Beach and Norfolk projects,'but.the level of
compliance was generally higher as well. 'This is most
likely attributed to the regular-post-construction inspec-
tions. Ninety (90) percent of the projects where'compli-
ance could be determined in Virginia Beach and Norfolk
ï¿½were determined to be in compliance and 10%o were in
moderate compliance. None of the inspected sites were
determined to be out of compliance. By comparison,
15% of the sites visited in other localities, were catego-
rized as out of compliance, where compliance could be
determined.
Prior to conducting the study, it was anticipated that
there would be a marked difference in compliance levels
between urban and rural localities. ï¿½Initially this ap,
peared to be the case. Once Virginia Beach'aiid Norfolk
were factored independently from the other urban locali-
ties, however, the data revealed very little difference in
compliance levels between urban and rural local'ities.
It appears that the programs being implemented by
Virginia Beackand Norfolk are-effective in ensuring per-
mit compliance. As a result-tthe recommendations for
improving compliance draw heavily on the examples '
.provided by'these localities.


SUMMARY AND' RCOMMENDATIONS

The increasing importance of effective compliance
monitoring cannot be overstated. Recent legislative
changes which authorize VMRC and wetland boards to
issue restoration orders and assess civil charges for viola-
tions of wetlands, dunes, and subaqueous statutes neces-
sitate compliance programs which can accurately

Discussion    '

A cursory review of the survey results is at first
very discouraging: Of all the constructed prjects'
reviewed, only 51% were determined to be in com-
pliance. It is important to note, however, that com-
pliance could not be determined for one reason or
another at 27% of the sites visited. The fact that.
compliance could not be determined does not auto-
matically mean that th6 projects were'not built in
conformance with the intent of the permit docu-
ment.
In fact, it is more encour'aging to note 'that the
vast majority of the'sites visited even-where compli-
ance could not be determined, appeared to have
been constructed aloiig ieasoriable alignments and.
were often the proper length or width or both. This
seems to indicate a general intent to comply with
ï¿½ permit requirements. Tiis opinion is further sup-
ported by the fact.that;, of ali those projects where
compliance could be determined, 89% were deter-'
mined to be in either total or moderate coripliance.
The primary problem identified during the sur-
vey was the inability to precisely determine compli-
ance at 27% of the sites visited. 'Many of the
permits did not have adequate drawings or bench-
marks to ensure compliance. A;dditionally, many
permits contained ambiguous conditions such as,
"approximately" or "as close po the bank as possi-
ble", which are by their nature virtually unenforce-
5

1. Require detailed drawings for all projects re-
quiring a wetlands permnnit. At a minimum, all of the in-
formation contained in the Joint Permit Application
drawing checklist should be included in the drawings.
Some boards have taken this a step further and require
ï¿½ professionally engineered drawings on all projects,
while others require such P. E. stamped drawings only
on commercial projects or large projects that surpass a
certain threshold of impact. These requirements should
ï¿½be clearly established as wetland board policies. An ap-
plication should not be considered complete until all the
* required information has'been received.

2. Special attention should be given to requiring
accurate benchmarks and reference points. Accurate
 distances from fixed reference points or benchmarks to' .
each end and/or angle of the structure or impacted area
'should be required. A sample plan view drawing con-
'taining'representative benchmarks is provided in Attach-
.ment 1. These distances should be carefully confirmed '
. during the initial site visit since they will ultimately be-
come the final indicators of permit compliance. If
benchmarks prove impractical for a particular project,
then a condition requiring that the alignment be staked
and inspected prior to permit issuance should be im-
posed as conditions of approval. Some boards also re-
quire that the alignment of a bulkhead be inspected and
:approved:after installation, but prior to backfilling, to re-
' duce the environmental impacts and costs of restoration
in the event it has been improperly constructed.

3. Take an adequate number of photographs or
slides during the initial site visit to clearly document
ï¿½ pre-construction site conditions. In addition to provid-
ing valuable reference material: for public hearings, pho-
tographic documentation provides clear comparative
evidence when determining permit compliance. If video
equipment is available, it may prove to be another help-
ful tool. .VCR tapes may even be less expensive and eas-
ier to archive in the long run. Photographic
documentation is especially valuable if the project will
require the grading of the adjacent upland.

4. Conduct routine post-construction inspections.
Although this may involve additional man-hours, it is
.the only mechanism available to ensure permit compli-
ance. If the required permit drawings and benchmarks
are clear and accurate, the compliance checks can usu-
ally be conducted quickly, even by individuals unfamil-
iar with the project Some localities might wish to
utilize their existing local building or code compliance
inspectors to check wetland board permit compliance
during their other regular duties. If a post-construction
inspection policy is adopted by the board, the inspectors
should utilize a compliance inspection worksheet similar
ascertain whether projects were conducted in con-
formance with the applicable permit documents.
According to the 1988 report by the Year 2020
Panel entitled, "Population Growth and Develop-
O'   . ment in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed to'the year
2020", Tidewater will experience continued and
rapid population gr6wth over the next two decades. '
As a result, conflicts between the various compet- -
ing user groups within the coastal region can only
be expected to increase and the issues become more
*O.     complex. Effective regulation and compliance moni-
toring will be essential if we are to accommodate
and manage this growth while limiting adverse im- .
pacts to our finite coastal resources.
-When developing compliance monitoring poli-.
cies it willbe important for the wetland boards and'-

plex, time consuming, orexpensive, public outcy    '

increased compliance without imposing undue or
unrealistic hardships upon the applicant.

Recommendations to Wetlands Boards to En-
hance Compliance Efforts

Wetlands ï¿½board compliance monitoring efforts
vary videly between localities. As a result, some
of the following recommendations will not be appli-
cable to all boards. In fact, many of the recomimen-
dations were developed from existing wetlands
board policies which have proven to be effective.
- The majority of the recommendations are designed
to assist boards in developing an acceptable compii-.
ance monitoring program if they don't currently
I  have one. They may also provide suggestiors- for -
improvement in those boards with existing compli-
ance procedures.  '        '
We acknowledge'that numerous localities are al-
ready financially constrained'and as such may not.'
have the additional funds or personnel necessary to
*         dedicate to an expansion of their wetlands pro-
grams. These recommendations were developed
with that in mind. Most can be effectively imple-
mented without additional manpower. In fact, once
underway, an active compliance monitoring pro-
gram could actually streamline project reviews and
*         reduce the number of time consuming violations
and after-the-fact permit requests that a board now
considers.

provide an additional mechanism for ascertaining when
the permitted construction has been completed, since the
permittee will typically call for a compliance inspection
soon thereafter in order to have his bond released.
Whether or not the board develops a performance bond
policy for all projects, performance bonds should be con-
sidered as a valuable tool to ensure compliance on pro-
jects of spedial concern.

.Recommendations VMRC Should Consider to En-
hance Compliance Efforts
Virginia' state agencies are also currently operating
within strict fiscal constraints. In addition, all agencies
contitiue to explore ways to streamnline the permitting
' process.. As a result, it is especially important that any
new compliance enhancement policies not result in-addi-
tional b'urdens on VMRC?s financial resources nor result
in unnecessaiy additional requirements imposed on the
applicant. The following recommendations are made '
'with this in mind and'are typically policy and procedural
type changes rather than an imposition of new require-"
 ments on the applicant. Many of the recommendations
 for VMRC are similar to those noted for wetlands
boards.

1. Require detailed drawings for all projects re-
quiring a VMRC permit. Staff engineers should utilize
the drawings checklist found in the Joint Permit Applica-
tion in their initial review of each application to deter-
mine completeness. Areas where insufficient data was
provided should be conveyed to the applicant with the
acknowledgement letter. Incomplete applications should
not be processed. If adherence to'this policy fails to pro-
vide the anticipated results, the Commission may wish to
consider adopting a regulation that requires profession-
ally engineered drawings be submitted on all commer-
cial projects, or for projects exceeding a certain
ï¿½ threshold of impact or value. In the event an engineer
can clearly determine from the available information that
a VMRC permit will not be required, additional informa-
tion to satisfy this policy would not be necessary.

2. Accurate benchmarks or reference-points
should be tequired on the plan view drawing(s) of all
projects requiring VMRC authorization.' Accurate
distances from the benchmark to each end, and angle of
the structure or impacted area should be mandatory.
These distances shourd be routinely checked during the
initial site visit: If benchmarks are impractical for a cer-
tain project, it may be necessary to have the applicant
stake the impacted area. If staking is utilized, the engi-
neer should take an adequate number of slides to accu-
rately document the proposed alignment. This may well
.be the case for dredging proposals.
to the one developed by VMRC. This form may be -
found as Attachment 2. The worksheet will help to
ensure that all the necessary information is gathered
during the inspection and will provide a -quick refer-
*   ' ence in the event questions regarding the project
arise later. Additionally, the worksheet-information
- should be provided to 'VMRC for incopdoration into
the compliance data'base. The data base 'will pro-
vide a valuable source of information on compli-
ance and the overall effectiveness of individual
'*   wetlands boards.
5. Utilize only enforceable permit conditions '
and avoid nebulous statements such as "approxi-
mately" and "as close to the bank as possible.
Instead, the board should negotiate a specific maxi-
ï¿½      mum encroachment, length, oramount of impacts
:should modifications become necessary to satisfy
any coicerns. If modifications or revisions are
. agreed to during the public hearing, revised draw-
ings which accurately reflect the modification,.in- -
e '	cluding revised benchmark distances, should be
)*	.required prior to permit issuance: .

6. Develop a wetland board placard to-be'
posted by the permnnittee at all permitted project
sites during construction. The placard'can serve
to aid inspectors and concemrned citizens when a pro-
*      ject is under construction and problems or questions
arise. The placard would provide the name and per-
mit number, making identification and inspection of
the project easier. If the locality already requires
building permits for all wetland projects, they may
wish to avoid duplication and just add the wetland
ï¿½* '   permit number to the placard for easy identifica-
tion. A sample placard that was developed for
VMRC is provided as Attachment 3.
7. Performance bonds can be utilized to pro-
vide a financial incentive to comply with wet-
*      lands permits. Some boards currently require all
' permittees to post a performance bond-- That bond
is not released until a post-construction inspection
has determined that the project was constructed'in
conformance with the permit document.. Some  .
ï¿½ boards may deterriine that bonds are not appropri-
ate for all projects due to low permitï¿½ activity or the
fact that additional man-hours are required to proc-
ess the bonds.'
Bonds are a compliance mechanism that are al-
ready provided for in the wetlands law. They are
*      routinely used effectively by a few boards to ensure
compliance. The bonds are typically set high
enough to provide sufficient funds to undertake res-
toration in the event of noncompliance. Bonds also

method to identify projecis which have yet to be in-
spected, as well.as, provide the next logical step in per-
mit tracking. Used in conjunction with the existing
project description tracking data, the new data would al-
low examination of compliance by such attributes as,
project type, locality, contractor and agent involved. It
would also provide important data onf the number of pro-
jects which actually get completed. This information
would provide an additional valuable tool for monitoring
compliance and identifying potential shortcomings in the
regulatory program.
VMRC should strongly encourage local wetlands
boards to'conduct routine post-construction inspections
utilizing the compliance Worksheet and provide the re-
suilts of the inspections to VMRC for incorporation into
the compliance tracking data base. Projects in localities
which opt not to'conduct routine post-construction in-
spections should be inspected by VMRC personnel, if
necessary,:to obtain the compliance data.

3. Engineers should take an adequate num-
ber of slides during the initial site visit to clearly
illustrate pre-construction site conditions. Photo-
*       graphs provide a valuable source of information
when reviewing constructed projects for compli-
ance. They are especially valuable when a great
deal of time has elapsed since the iniifal site visit
and in those cases where the engineer who origi-
nally reviewed the project is no longer available to
*       assist.
Although slides have been used almost exclu-
sively in the past for photographic documentation,
it may be useful to utilize video tape for certain
types of projects. If video. taping is used more fre-
quently, it may be necessary to'develop a method to
*       archive the tapes for easy access and retrieval.

4. Engineers should conduct post-construc-
tion inspections at all sites.permitted by VMRC.
The post-construction inspection form found in At-
tachment 2 should be utilized to ensure that all nec-
essary information is gathered during the visit.-
The Commission should consider expanding'
their existing Memorandum of Agreement with the
Department of Game and Inland Fisheries to in-
elude'the use of VDGIF personnel to conduct the
post-construction inspections in the western portion
of the State.
Dredging projects should be evaluated by boat.
Soundings should be taken to ascertain compliance;.
Dredgiing inspections should be conducted as soon
after completion as practical to minimize the likeli-
hood that additional impacts from non-dredging re-
lated factors could obscure.or cloud the dredged
dimensions of the area. If available, a chart re-
corder or a precise recording fathometer would be
especially valuable to document the inspection.
In order to receive notification of the comple-.
tion of permitted activities, VMRC should consider
re-instituting the former postcard notification proce-
dure.. Should the permittees fail to regularlyreturn'
the postcards upon completion, which was often the
case in the past, the Commission might have'to re -
sort to bonding or some.other form of deposit. This
*) -     bond would not-be released-until after a post-con-
struction inspection had confirmed permit'compli-
ance. It might be necessary to seek legislative.
authorization if the Commission is to require bonds
for permits issued under Section 62.1-3.

(*           5. Data collected from the post-construction
inspections should be incorporated into the Habi-
tat Management Division's existing computer
tracking system. This would provide an easy

Preface
This guide is designed to assist you in applying for permits from Local, State, and Federal regulatory agencies for
*      work in waters and/or wetlands within the Commonwealth of Virginia. The intent of the guide is to provide
general information on the permit process, not a complete legal and technical reference.
Answers to technical questions and detailed information about specific aspects of the various permit programs may
be obtained from any of the Federal and State regulatory offices or the advisory agencies listed in the agency
directory.



The Joint Permit Application Process
Complete one application to apply for multiple agencypernits - A single Joint Permit Application is used by the
regulatory agencies. This means only one application needs to be completed for most local, state, and federal
agency permits. However, some health departments and local agencies do not use this application. You should
contact them for information regarding their requirements. Even though one application has been filed, separate
permits are often required from the regulatory agencies involved in the permit program. Before vou heein work_
make sure vou have received authorizations or waivers from each aeencv.
Send completed application to the Virginia Marine Resources Commission. They will assign a processing number
and forward copies to the Corps of Engineers, Department of Environmental Quality, local wetlands board, and
various other State agencies, as appropriate.
If you have any questions about the need for a permit, the permitting process, or completing the joint permit
application, contact the Corps of Engineers for a pre-application site visit. Corps staff can often help you
minimize adverse impacts or eliminate the need for a Corps permit altogether.

Organization of The Joint Application
*  The basic application, appendices, and various acknowledgement forms are located in the front of the booklet
The general information section which contains a regulatory and resource agency directory, information on
penalties, processing procedures, definitions and special terms, and the most frequently asked questions is located
in the back of the booklet
If you are submitting this application as a Pre-Discharge
Notification (PDN) under the the Corps Nationwide permit
program, 33 CFR 330 (Appendix A, Part C), you must clearly
identify it by writing the letters PDN at the top of the first
page of the basic application.

Processing Procedures
Concurrent processing - When your application is received by VMRC, an application number is assigned. This number will be used
*       when referring to your projecL Copies of the application will be forwarded to the regulatory agencies by VMRC. Because of.
differences in jurisdiction and laws, these agencies will perfonn separate but concurrent reviews of your poject.

Site Inspections - Site inspections are necessary to evaluate proposals before, during, and after a permit is issued. Phototanhs of the
nrmiect sight will be taken during the on-site evaluations. Failure to allow an authorized renresentafive to enter or to take nhntomanh-t
of conditions at the oroiect site mav result in nermit denial.

Joint Srate/Federal Public Notice - A Joint Public Notice may be used to advertise project plans. Comments received in response to
the Public Notice are considered by each agency in reaching their individual decisions on the project Certain types of projects may
qualify for Corps general permits. In such cases, a joint public notice will not be preparid. The affected state and local agencies will
then follow their individual regulations for advertising the project which may require publication in a local newspaper.

Commenting on Notices - Adjacent property owners and others who have expressed interest in a particular area are fumished a copy of
the joint public notice. In addition, local and state agencies may place a public notice in the local newspaper. Anyone may comment
on a public notice. Comments must be made in writing and received by the close of the comment period specified in the public
notice.
Public Hearings - At the close of the Public Notice comment period Public Hearings may be held by Local State, or Federal agencies.
c      All applications requiring a local wetlands permit are considered at a public hearing held by the local wetlands board.
Purpose of Federal Hearings - The purpose of a Federal public hearing is to acquire information that is pertinent to the decision making
process and cannot be obtained through other means.

Federal Hearing Procedures - Most projects ufsually affect only the applicant and the s ounmding neighborhood. Verv few nmieat
renuire a nublir. hearing. When a hearing is necessary, a 30 day public notice is sent out announcing the date, time and place of the
hearing. A decision on the nmiet will not he made at the heai. A 10 day comment period follows the hearing to allow for
additional facts or information to be submitted before the District Engineer makes a final decision.

State/Local Hearing Procedures - Projects affecting tidal wetlands will be heard by the appropriate Local Wetlands Board after a notice
of Public Hearing has been advertised at least once a week for two consecutive weeks in a local newspaper. You should consult your
local wetlands board to determine who bears the cost for this advertisement. VMRC will conduct the hearings for localities with no
v*     wetlands board.

Commission Meetings - Protested applications for a Virginia Marine Resources Commission permit which cannot be resolved,
projects costing over $50,000 involving encroachment upon or over State-owned subaqueous land, and all projects affecting State and
local wetlands in localities without a wetlands board will be scheduled for Public Hearings by VMRC at their regularly scheduled
monthly commission meetings.. All interested parties will be officially notified regarding the date and time of the hearing, as well as
informed of Commission meeting procedures. The Commission will make a decision on the project at the meeting unless a decision
for continuance is made.

Joint Processing Meetings - Pending applications that do not meet the criteria of the Corps general permits are discussed at a joint
processing meeting attended by representatives from the regulatory/advisory agencies. Project impacts as well as possible alternatives
are discussed. These meetings are designed to reduce processing time by eliminating duplication of agency efforts.
Virginia Water Protection Permits - All applications and permits will be processed in accordance with the Virginia Wate Protection
Permit Regulations (VA 680-15-02) and with Procedural Rule No. 1.

Finalization of Process - If the project is approved, a permit is sent to the applicant. In some cases a notarized signature as well as
processing fees and royalties are required before the permit is validated. If the project is denied, the reason(s) for denial will be
a     provided in writing.
If you have questions about completing the application or drawings or on the permitting process, caU any of the agencies listed on

Most frequently asked questions
What is the U. S. Corps of Engineers and what do they do, and why? The Corps of Engineers is a branch of the
U. S. Army. You may not realize that the Corps' responsibilities go far beyond bridge and dam building. Specifically, the Corps'
Regulatory Branch is responsible for regulating construction, dredging, and filling activities in waters of the United States including
tidal and nontidal wetlands. Congress charged the Corps with administering Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899 which
prohibits obstructing or altering navigable waters of the U. S. without a permit In 1977, the Corps was also charged with
administering Section 404 of the Clean Water Act which prohibits the unauthorized discharge of dredged or fill matrial into waters,
including tidal and nontidal wetlands of the United States.

What are nationwide and regional permits?  A nationwide permit is a form of general permit which authorizes certain
activities throughout the nation in many cases without the property owner needing to notify the Corps provided certain conditions are
met. However, an application may still be required for State review. A regional permit is a general permit issued by division or
district engineers on a regional basis. The Norfolk District has issued regional permits for some 20 different activities.
_
How do I know if I need a permit? Any activity (structure, dredging, certain land clearing, filling, etc.) which obstructs,
alters, or discharges fill into waters of the United States including tidal and nontidal wetlands may require a permit from the Corps, the
Virginia Marine Resources Commission, the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality and or the local wetlands board. You
may call the appropriate agency listed at the front of the joint application booklet for further guidance.

Will someone visit the site of my proposed project and tell me what is the best course of action?  If you
believe a site visit would assist you in developing your project plans, you may call the Corps.

What is the permit process? The permnitting process begins with you. You complete a Joint Permit Application and send it to
the Virginia Marine Resources Commission (VMRC). VMRC assigns an application number and sends copies of your application to
DEQ, your local wetlands board and to the Corps. Projects not satisfying the requirements of a nationwide or regional permit may
need to be advertised by public notice. The Corps is required to coordinate such applications with the Environmental Protection
Agency, the U. S. FLsh and Wildlife Service, and the National Marine Fisheries Service. The Corps considers the view of these
agencies as well as comments received from the public in their evaluation of the project.

What are the penalties if I do not follow the permit process? The agencies are responsible for enforcing the regulations
they administer. Reported or detected violations will be investigated. Should a violation be confirmed, appropriate action will be
*  pursued. (See page 57 for specific Federal and State penalties.)

Where can I get further information about wetlands, wildlife, and the regulatory process? There are many
sources. For information regarding wetlands, wildlife and the regulatory process you may contact any of the regulatory and advisory
agencies listed on pages 51-54 of this booklet. The following agencies may also provide valuable information about aquatic resources,
wetlands, wildlife and thier habitats:

Chesapeake Bay Local Assistance Department	1-800-243-7229 (1-800-CHESBAY)
Environmental Protection Agency Wetlands Hotline	1-800-832-7828

As a reminder, your local wetlands board (mostly in tidal areas) or your local Soil & Water Conservation District my also provide
assistance and advice on development in or affecting wetlands.

Does VMRC have jurisdiction in areas other than Tidewater?    Yes, in State-owned submerged lands in nontidal areas.
This includes all the beds of the bays, rivers and creeks not conveyed by special grant or compact according to law. All perennial
stams may be under VMRC jurisdiction.

8. Functional values assessment (wetlands only):
Functional assessments are required for impacts (permanent and temporary) to all wetlands one acre or
more in size. Many recognized functional assessment methodologies exist. However, the DEQ endorses
no specific methodology at this time. It is suggested that an applicant or his agent select a method
based upon its ease of use, ability to provide quality information, and utility in the field. Applicants
are cautioned that the assessment of wetland functional value is technically complex. Persons
unfamiliar with the techniques for functional assessment should use caution when attempting to utilize
these methods. The functional assessment and the methodology utilized to determine functional value
must be submitted to the DEQ with the application package.
9. Wetland delineation (where applicable):
All projects impacting wetlands must provide a delineation map showing the physical location and
aerial extent of all wetlands on the site. All data sheets and calculations utilized to determnine an
area's wetland status shall be submitted with the delineation map. The currently accepted federal
methodology shall be used in preparing wetland delineations.
10. Mitigation Plan (required for unavoidable wetland losses and stream modifications):

The mitigation plan shall at a minimum include:
a. Measures taken to avoid impacts to surface waters, including wetlands.
Enample  1: Structures were relocated to avoid wetland/stream relocation area's identified at
X and Y on the delineation map.
Exaple 2: The road crossing structure has been changed from a quadruple box culvert to a
bridge in order to avoid fill and channel modifications in Jones Branch, a sensitive trout stream.
b. Where impacts could not be avoided, measures taken to reduce impacts to surface waters,
including wetlands.
Example 1: The slope of the road fill was reduced to x resulting in a reduction of y in wetland
area impacted.
Efamlple 2: The bridge was realigned to reduce the amount of channelization necessary to
accommodate the road crossing.
c. Where impacts could not be avoided or minimized, a mitigation plan which completely
describes the type of impact to be mitigated and the means by which mitigation will be accomplished.
Plans should include:

..                                                                                        . ..
*Location of the mitigation site, including latitude and longitude at the center of the site.
*detailed sketches and site plans
* any other measures designed to re-create, enhance or restore impacted beneficial uses within the
proposed mitigation area.
If no replacement mitigation is planned,. the applicant must include a brief statement to this effect and
include a detailed explanation as to the reason no rel?lacement rmitigation is planned.
I Note: Applicants with projects involving a water withdrawal or a FERC hydropower licensing or
relicensing are required to provide the information in items 11 through 19.

How  to calculate square feet, cubic feet and  cubic yards:

If you wanted to dredge a channel 100 feet long, 20 feet wide and 5 feet deeper than the existing channel is at
mean low water, the volume you dredge would look similar to the illustration below.




100'

V'/
Using steps 1 - 3 below, the calculations for this example are:
1. 100 feet x 20 feet =	2,000 square feet
2. 5 feet x 2,000 feet =	10,000 cubic feet
3. 10,000 cubic feet /27 = 370 cubic yards -

There is no evidence that the buoy was ever
placed.
The tide was high but I was able to estimate
that the project was in compliance. The
groins and the steps were placed in the
correct position. Based upon my
conversation with the engineer we felt the
project was in compliance
Not trapping much sand yet, downstream
groin cell still full
