Solid waste planning regulations
Elements of Solid Waste
The Elements of Virginia's Solid Waste Program document has been prepared as an overview of how the solid waste program and planning currently proceed under Virginia statutes and regulations. It was prepared in response to a request from the Waste Management Board for a planning document on solid waste management in Virginia. A draft was presented to the Board at their meeting on May 12, 2005, and the Board accepted the draft and authorized its posting. Public comments were accepted for 30 days and the document was finalized on August 30, 2005. DEQ's responses to the comments received are posted here.
