What are the state and federal regulations Fairfax County must follow with regard to stormwater?
Fairfax County is responsible for compliance with new federal and state regulations regarding water quality and providing stormwater management facilities, pipes and other structures and services within its jurisdiction. Permits require maintenance of storm drains, inlets, ditches, and streams, and ensure that erosion and sediment controls are provided on construction sites. All of these requirements are rooted in the Clean Water Act, which sometimes mandates actions to protect personal and public property as well as provide for a healthy environment. Neither the federal nor the state government provides funding for these services.
