Suspended This stage has been suspended on 4/4/11
 
Reason: The Director of the Department of Environmental Quality is suspending the effective date of 9VAC25-800, the Virginia Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (VPDES) General Permit For Discharges Resulting From the Application of Pesticides to Surface Waters. This regulation was adopted by the State Water Control Board on February 4, 2011, with an effective date of April 10, 2011. It was published in the Virginia Register on February 28, 2011. This Virginia VPDES general permit regulation was developed to comply with the 6th Circuit Court's ruling. On March 28, 2011, the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals granted EPA's request for a further extension of the effective date of the Court’s ruling and deadline for when permits will be required for pesticide discharges from April 9, 2011 to October 31, 2011. The Director of the Department of Environmental Quality is suspending the effective date of 9VAC25-800 to be consistent with the 6th Circuit Court's ruling. The Department will present an amended Pesticides General Permit Regulation with a revised effective date of October 31, 2011, and a revised expiration date of December 31, 2013, to the State Water Control Board for readoption at their April 14, 2011 meeting.
