I am an avid fisherman who frequently fishes the Shenandoah and Potomac rivers.  I  closely follow the Shenandoah and Potomac Riverkeepers efforts to preserve and protect the Shenandoah and Potomac rivers from intentional harm and negligent practices.   I fully support the current efforts of these riverkeepers in their call for improvements in the General Construction Permit process.  It is critical that SWPPPs are made available to the public for every construction site in Virginia.  I can think of no reason why these improvements should not be fully considered and implemented.    Frankly, I cannot fathom why developers and land owners who invest in property so close to these rivers would not want these measures to be implemented.

I would like to request that information be provided to me on the outcome related to process.  Thanks.
