Which regulation administers the Virginia Stormwater Management Program?

The Virginia Stormwater Management Program Regulation specifically governs the administration of the Virginia Stormwater Management Program. This regulation outlines the policies, procedures, and standards required for managing stormwater in Virginia, including requirements for construction site management, post-construction practices, and local government participation. It is designed to protect water quality and manage the quantity of stormwater runoff, making it a key component in efforts to mitigate flooding and pollution in surface waters.

The other options refer to broader categories or different related regulations. For example, the Virginia Administrative Code includes a wider range of regulations across various state programs, but it does not focus solely on stormwater management. Similarly, the Environmental Protection Regulation pertains to a variety of environmental protection measures, while the Local Government Regulation might address local governance issues but does not specifically address stormwater management as a comprehensive program. Therefore, the Virginia Stormwater Management Program Regulation is the authoritative source that directly administers the specific stormwater program in Virginia.
