What measures will be used to monitor, offset, or clean up any water contamination during and after construction? How will sediment levels be monitored?

DEQ is responsible for monitoring erosion and sediment. The Roanoke County engineer and his staff reviewed the review that DEQ did for E&S plans. County staff made a number of comments back to DEQ. However, the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors voted not to enter into an agreement with DEQ that would have enabled County staff to coordinate on land-disturbing activities.
