(Wednesday, February 13, 2008) - The Rivanna Water & Sewer Authority (RWSA) received a Water Protection Permit yesterday authorizing the design and construction of the community’s 50-Year Water Supply Plan. The Permit was signed by the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) on February 11, 2008. This Plan includes the expansion of the Ragged Mountain Reservoir and the construction of a new pipeline between the South Fork and Ragged Mountain Reservoirs, as well as a mitigation plan that includes placing 14.2 miles of streams into buffered conservation areas and constructs four acres of new wetlands.

So we have our permit from DEQ. Now What?
