Dear Waterworks Owner and Other Interested Parties:
The Virginia Department of Health (VDH) received numerous funding requests and set-aside suggestions following the January 2010 announcement regarding funds available from the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund Program. Through the Safe Drinking Water Act, Congress authorizes capitalization grants to the states but authorization has not been finalized.
The VDH's Office of Drinking Water (ODW) has prepared a draft Intended Use Plan (IUP) using information submitted via the funding requests and set-aside suggestions. This draft IUP is for review and comment by the public. The document entitled "Virginia Drinking Water State Revolving Fund Program Design Manual" (dated January 5, 2010) is a part of the Intended Use Plan. This document was mailed in the January announcement and is available at: /odw/financial.
The VDH will hold a public meeting. The meeting will be on Wednesday, September 21, 2011 from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. at the Office of Drinking Water East Central Field Office, 300 Turner Road, Richmond, VA 23225. In addition, comments from the public are to be postmarked by Friday, September 30, 2011.
Those parties planning to attend may contact Theresa Hewlett at (804) 864-7501 by the close of business on Monday, September 19, 2011. Please direct your requests for information and forward written comments to:
