Additional Planning Comments:
Mix of Nonresidential and Residential Uses
As noted, the Comprehensive Plan suggests that the subject property, as well as the surrounding area,
would be appropriate for development of an integrated mixture of highly concentrated nonresidential
uses which have a regional customer draw. The majority of the uses should be nonresidential, such as
corporate office, commercial and light industrial/research and development. Higher density residential
uses are appropriate only if they are not the predominate use, and only if developed in conjunction
with nonresidential uses. While the application includes the ability to develop the uses envisioned by
the Plan, the proposal fails to ensure the appropriate mix of such uses.
Further, the Zoning Ordinance provides guidance as to the appropriate mix of nonresidential and
residential land uses within regional mixed use areas. The applicant is proposing a mix of 46 percent
residential and 54 percent nonresidential. Based upon the guidance of the Plan and Ordinance, staff
has typically suggested no more than 30 percent of the land within a regional mixed use area be
devoted to residential uses. Staff has discussed this concern with the applicants on numerous
occasions and suggested that if Tract C which is currently zoned for light industrial/research and
development uses is either withdrawn from the application or limited to its current zoning through the
application, the result would be a mix of 32 percent residential and 68 percent nonresidential.
Type of Nonresidential Uses and Phasing of Development
As noted, the Comprehensive Plan suggests that the type of nonresidential uses be those that have a
regional customer draw. Further, the Zoning Ordinance provided guidance as to development phasing
in C-4 mixed use development suggesting that prior to development of residential uses a minimum of
50 percent of a project's area which is devoted to nonresidential uses be under construction. Staff
acknowledges that the proposed Water Park will bring patrons from both within, and outside of the
county, however, the application fails to ensure that other types of nonresidential uses normally found
in a project having residential uses will be developed. The plan anticipates a "mixed use
development". Typically, mixed use developments include commercial uses which serve and
accommodate the daily needs of those who live in the development. The application allows for all uses
permitted by right or with restrictions in the C-4 District plus some use exceptions. There is a
possibility that the Commercial Space developed on Tracts D and E will be totally recreational and
recreationally related (Textual Statement II.D.). In addition, the development phasing will allow 390
multifamily building permits to be released at such time as Phase I of the Water Park and 20,000
square feet of Commercial Space (which could all be related to recreational uses) is Committed and
Commenced. There is no guarantee that Phase I and the 20,000 square feet will ever be Completed.
(Textual Statement II.C. and II. F.)
12
16SN0704-2016SEPT20-CPC-RPT
Design
Consistent with the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan, the Textual Statement requires
urban or traditional neighborhood design standards. Further, the architectural design requirements
exceed those normally offered with a residential zoning application. (Textual Statement)
Health, Safety and Welfare
Proffered Condition 17 attempts to address concerns relative to the water quality of the Recreational
Waters by requiring that the "applicant" develop a water quality monitoring and maintenance program
based on protocols of the Environmental Protection Agency. As written, the proffer does not state as
to whether the program will be submitted to any department or agency for review or approval, or if
any department of agency would monitor the compliance with an approved program. Further, it is the
Planning Department's understanding that the EPA criteria referenced is for natural bodies of water
and not manmade water features; therefore the requirement would not sufficient to protect the
health, safety and welfare of participants. Thirdly, the term "applicant" should be changed to
"developer". The Health Department continues to review the proffer and comments may be revised.
(Attachment 4)
Main Lake and Sidewalks, Boardwalks and Bridges
In an attempt to address impacts on Parks and Recreational Facilities, the Textual Statement, II. F. states
that the Main Lake and the associated sidewalks, boardwalks and bridges will be "open to the public". It
is unclear as what this statement means, as it is assumed that the entire development will be open for
public use. Staff is unsure as to whether the developer intended to mean that the facilities will be open to
the public at no charge, only for viewing at no cost, etc.
13
16SNO704-2016SEPT20-CPC-RPT
The need for schools, parks, libraries, fire stations and transportation facilities in this area is identified
in the County's adopted Public Facilities Plan, Thoroughfare Plan and Adopted Capital Improvement
Program and further detailed by specific departments in the applicable sections of this request
analysis.
This proposed development will have an impact on capital facilities. Staff has calculated the fiscal
impact of every new dwelling unit on schools, roads, parks, libraries and fire stations at $23,418 per
unit.
The applicant has proffered a maximum density not to exceed 790 dwelling units; which consists of a
maximum of 390 multi -family units and a maximum density of thirteen (13) townhouse units per acre
(approximately 400 townhomes). The applicant has committed through both the Textual Statement
and Proffered Conditions to phase the development of this project. Of the 790 total dwelling units, a
maximum of 390 multifamily units could be constructed once Phase I of the Water Park as well as
20,000 square feet of Commercial Space has been committed and commenced. The applicant has not
offered cash proffer for these multifamily units. Prior to the release of any residential townhouse
building permit, Phase I of the Water Park and 20,000 square feet of gross floor area of Commercial
Space unrelated to the support of the Main Lake shall be completed, all as described in the Textual
Statement II.F.
The applicant has proffered cash for up to 300 townhouse units of the 790 total residential units; the
applicant has not offered a cash proffer on the remaining 490 potential units to be constructed. More
specifically, the applicant has offered cash proffer payments for townhouses with the amount of the
payments being varied based on the number of bedrooms. If the townhouse dwelling unit is
constructed with 3 or more bedrooms, then the applicant has proffered $18,966 per unit. If the
townhouse unit is constructed with 2 or fewer bedrooms, then the applicant has proffered $11,152 per
unit. Furthermore, once the applicant has completed a portion of the Water Park and some
Commercial Space (Textual Statement II.F. and Proffered Conditions 3 & 4), the applicant can then
begin construction on a portion of the residential townhouse units with subsequent requirements for
additional Commercial Space before beginning construction of additional townhouse units. Depending
on the sequencing of development, based on the proffered conditions, it is possible the applicant may
or may not be paying the cash proffer. Therefore, the applicant is not adequately addressing this
development's impact on capital facilities.
The following chart describes the fiscal impact of this development on capital facilities. 'Scenario A'
illustrates all units not paying a cash proffer based on committed, commenced and completed
commercial space as described about in the Proffered Conditions and Textual Statement. 'Scenario B'
illustrates 300 townhouse units paying $18,966 per unit. In either scenario, the applicant has not
14
16SN0704-2016SEPT20-CPC-RPT
offered a cash proffer on 490 units. Again, due to the phasing plan established in the Proffered
Conditions and Textual Statement, it is possible the applicant would not pay a cash proffer on any
residential unit. Therefore, the actual amount to be collected could range from $0 to nearly $5.7
million with a shortfall ranging from $9.3 million to $15 million.
The Board of the Supervisors has from time to time, in recognition of other aspects of the case,
approved cases with a reduced cash proffer based on the number of bedrooms in the dwelling unit.
The Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors, through their consideration of this request, may
determine that there are unique circumstances relative to this request that may justify acceptance of
proffers as offered for this case.

Additional School Comments:
After review of this request, based on current total school system capacity and student enrollment the
proposed rezoning case will have an impact on schools. Over time this case, combined with other
active and tentative residential developments and zoning cases will continue to push schools to their
capacity and therefore impact the capacity of facilities division -wide.
The School Board FY2017 adopted Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) continues to support the 2013 voter
approved school revitalization program that will replace or renovate 10 schools and construct 1 new
elementary school to add capacity in the Midlothian area of the county. The 10 existing facilities that
are part of the revitalization program are Providence Middle School, Monacan High School,
Manchester Middle School, Beulah Elementary School, Enon Elementary School, Matoaca Elementary
School, Harrowgate Elementary School, Reams Elementary School, Crestwood Elementary School, and
Ettrick Elementary School. Additional information on the CIP can be found in the financial section of

Additional Transportation Comments:
Tract C is located within the Powhite Parkway—Charter Colony Parkway Interchange Service District.
Property within the Service District is subject to a supplemental real estate tax of $0.15 per $100 of
assessed value. If Tract C is developed for townhouses, notice of the Service District will be required on
each subdivision plat (Textual Statement Condition VI. B.2). In other residential areas within the Service
District, ,homeowners have expressed concern about the supplemental real estate tax even though notice
was provided on the subdivision plat.

Additional Utilities Comments:
Wastewater is available to each parcel either though easement or right of way. Water is directly
available to the southern two parcels, and will have to be extended along Tredegar Lake Parkway to
the northern two parcels. Since it is anticipated that the development will have more than 25 lots,
multiple water feeds will be required. There appears to be adequate water and sewer capacity for
domestic usage for the type of development anticipated at this time. Proffers limiting the potential
impact of the "Recreational Waters" on the public water and wastewater system are acceptable.
(Proffered Conditions 2 and 16)
The proposed water park intends to utilize private groundwater wells along with rainwater harvesting
to fill the water features (Proffered Conditions 2 and 16). The use of wells to fill swimming pools and
other similar uses is currently allowable by County Code. The county water system cannot be
connected to a water system using wells and/or rainwater. The developer's engineer has indicated
that extensive hydrogeological studies have been performed and they engineers are confident that
there are adequate groundwater supplies to meet water needs for the
Recreational Waters without any connection to the public water system. The Utilities Department also
understands that the backwash from the Recreational Waters' filter system will not be directed to the
public wastewater system. The only planned use for public water and wastewater is for domestic use
within buildings (such as, but not limited to, residential, restaurants, shops etc.). The Proffered
Conditions and Textual Statement include language that supports these statements and places limits
on the use of the public water system to supplement the "Recreational Waters", specifically during
water use restrictions. (Proffered Conditions 2 and 16)
Applicant is respectfully reminded of the following items:
• A looped water line will be required and evaluated during site plan review;
• On-site water and sewer easements must be provided, as determined by the Utilities
Department;
• The water and wastewater systems appear to currently have capacity to support the domestic
usage proposed with this development; and
• Unmetered wastewater or stormwater is not permitted to enter the sanitary sewer system.
Utilities Conclusion:
The Textual statement and Proffered conditions limiting the potential impact of the "Recreational
Waters" on the public water and wastewater system are acceptable. It is understood that further
analysis and engineering will be required during the design of the "Recreational Waters" plans to
establish more details on permissible quantities of supplemental water, etc.
The remaining areas of the development are proposing to utilize public water and wastewater service
which is required.

Geography
• Located within the Nuttree Branch and Falling Creek Watersheds
• Southern half of the property located at 2601 Genito Place (Parcel 1) naturally drains
toward Genito Road where a culvert array of six pipe barrels conveys the drainage
under Genito Road and into the campus area of Clover Hill High School
• The portion of the property located at 13400 Genito Road (Parcel 2) closest to Genito
Road also drains under Genito Road into the same area of concern as Parcel 1 by way of
a 36" reinforced concrete pipe. The remaining portion of Parcel 2 drains in the direction
of Colonial Village at Waterford. Infrastructure at the common property line in which to
discharge storm drainage from Parcel 2 does not appear to exist.
• The property located at 13200 Tredegar Lake Parkway (Parcel 3) was zoned as a part of

Issue
Discussion/Conditions
• The area downstream of this site has been a serious storm drainage area of concern.
The development of the Waterford Park project should mimic the Clover Hill High
School drainage plan by diverting as much of the runoff from the property as possible to
the roadside ditches within the Route 288 right-of-way. Lake overflow shall be
connected to the Route 288 drainage system, and the area of the project which drains
to the lake shall be maximized with discharge rates into the Nuttree Branch Watershed
held at or below the pre -development levels.
• For the portion of the property which drains to the existing culverts under Genito Road,
the post -development discharge rates for the 2, 10, 25 and 100 year storms shall be
maintained under pre -development discharge rates.
Drainage
Proffered Condition 11
• For the portion of the property which drains to Colonial Village, the maximum post -
development drainage discharge rate for the 100 -year storm shall be based on the
minimum capacity of the existing facilities downstream, as well as the recorded 100 -
year backwater and/or floodplain shall not be increased. On-site detention of the
post -development discharge rate for the 100 -year storm to below the pre -
development discharge rate may be provided to satisfy this requirement.
Proffered Condition 12
• There is a 42" diameter reinforced concrete pipe within an easement at the rear of
2501 Waterford Lake Drive which was designed to accommodate development of
Parcel 3.
• The development of Parcels 1 and 2 is subject to the Part IIB technical criteria of the
Virginia Stormwater Management Program (VSMP) Regulations for both water

quality and water quantity
• Parcel 3 is included within the master plan for the existing Waterford Lake;
Management
therefore, the development of this parcel is subject to the Part IIC technical criteria
of the VSMP Program Regulations for both water quality and water quantity until
July 1, 2019, unless otherwise extended by state regulation
• During the construction of Route 288, several cut slope failures requiring the use of
riprap for stabilization occurred
• To prevent any potential impact on the stability of the existing highway, additional
geotechnical information, profiles, and cross sections of the proposed lake and
embankment within the Route 288 right-of-way and the proposed ramp area, shall be
submitted to the Environmental Engineering Department and VDOT for review and
approval to verify that the integrity of the existing infrastructure will not be impacted by
the proposed lake prior to final site plan approval of the proposed lake(s).
Main Lake
Proffered Condition 13
• Prior to final site plan approval of the proposed lake, a dam failure and inundation
analysis for the proposed lake shall be submitted to the Environmental Engineering
Department for review and approval.
Proffered Condition 14
• The size of the main lake(s) will most likely make it subject to the Virginia Dam Safety
Regulations. All required permits shall be obtained prior to issuance of a land

Additional Stormwater Comments:
The recreational waters are proposed on a parcel which currently drains in two directions. The
northern half of the property drains to Route 288, which places it within the Falling Creek Watershed.
The southern half of the parcel drains to six culverts under Genito Road and into the Clover Hill High
School campus, which places it within the Nuttree Branch Watershed. The property is not located
within the Upper Swift Creek Watershed and will not drain into the reservoir.
The topography of the property does not indicate the existence of a perennial stream or drainage
feature to continually feed the Recreational Waters; therefore, the use of stormwater, supplemented
with ground water wells, is the primary source for the proposed facility. Untreated stormwater
contains solid and liquid pollution which can increase bacteria levels and disease -causing organisms. In
addition, potential chemical treatment that would be necessary to provide water quality suitable for
human recreation and satisfy health regulations may impact the facility from adequately providing the
stormwater treatment required by state and county regulations.
Stormwater management specifications and guidance for wet ponds include the installation of
sediment forebays at each major inlet, a vegetated safety bench at the normal pool elevation, an
aquatic bench just inside the normal pool elevation, and warning signs prohibiting swimming.
Sediment forebays are needed to capture sediment laden stormwater runoff from parking lots and
roadways, which include trash, oils, greases, and other contaminants. These forebays are typically
shallow, collect sediment and provide an environment for the growth of disease -causing organisms.
Aquatic benches are necessary to enhance nutrient uptakes and provide food and nesting for wildlife,
which may pose additional risks to public safety. Stormwater management facilities are designed to
capture pollutants from stormwater, as well as bacteria and other pathogens; therefore, swimming in
these facilities is typically cautioned against and/or prohibited.
As a result of the overall concern for public safety, as well as the design considerations, it is
recommended that stormwater management is treated separately from all recreational waters. After
reviewing the applicant's request and Textual Statement, staff cannot determine this concern has been
adequately addressed and does not support the combined use of stormwater treatment and proposed
recreational activities.

If the Recreational Waters are classified as a swimming pool, the Recreational Waters would be subject to
Virginia swimming pool regulations. However, if the Recreational Waters are not classified as a swimming
pool, conditions to address health, safety and welfare cannot be determined without construction
details. However, if water sports are anticipated, the Health Department believes that swimming pool
water quality standards should be met.
There are no guarantees in place to insure that the health issues that arose at a similar facility in North
Carolina would not occur, and in fact, a guarantee is an impossibility. Participation in water sports
carries some risk. Although the risks cannot be eliminated, they can be reduced. Naeglaria, the agent
which caused the North Carolina death, does occur naturally in some Virginia warm water bodies and,
although infrequently, cases have occurred in the area.
Chesterfield Health Department agents have met with representatives of the proposed project,
discussed the issue with the Centers for Disease Control, and consulted with the Office of
Environmental Health Services and the Office of Environmental Epidemiology of the Virginia
Department of Health.
The representatives of the project proposed increase safeguards, but absolute protection cannot be
guaranteed. The design of the Water Park and the treatment plans have not been finalized, so it
cannot be determined what requirements should be in place, and whether part or all of the facility
would be considered a public pool and regulated as such.
There are no proposals from the project representatives to check water quality at this time. Lakes are
generally unregulated, although local regulations may be established. Project representatives have
agreed to follow public health recommendations, but without commitment to specific details of the
design, construction, and operation of the features, it is not prudent to suggest regulations. From
discussions with the Virginia Department of Health and the Centers for Disease Control, it is apparent
that testing for Naeglaria would not be an effective protection, and there are many other disease -
causing organism threats that must be considered in addition to Naeglaria.
Upon receipt of construction plans, if the Recreational Waters fall within the purview of Health
Department regulations requiring that the waters be tested, all such tests would be available to the
public, unless an individual's personal health information is involved.
The nature and timing of monitoring has not been determined at this time. If a feature of the facility
meets the definition of a swimming pool, it will fall under some of the Virginia Department of Health
regulations, which spells out monitoring requirements in a specific manner. If it does not, local
regulations and/or a legal agreement would have to be established. If any regulation or agreement
28
16SN0704-2016SEPT20-CPC-RPT
included monitoring by the Health Department, documentation from that monitoring would be
available to the public. There are currently no local regulations.
On September 12, 2016, the applicant submitted revised draft proffers which include an attempt to
address water quality concerns of the Recreational Waters (Proffered Condition 17). The Health
Department has not completed its review of this latest submission.

SUBJECT: Waterford Park Rezoning Traffic Impact Analysis Acceptance (Case 16SN0704)
NW Quadrant — Route 288 / Genito Rd. (Route 604)
2"d Submission, Study Revision dated May 2016
Dear Ms. Peterson:
In accordance with §15.2-2222.1 of the Code of Virginia and the Virginia Traffic Impact Analysis
Regulations, 24 VAC 30-155 (also known as Chapter 527), a traffic impact analysis was prepared by RK&K
on the rezoning for the proposed development project entitled Waterford Park.
The Virginia Department of Transportation (Department) has evaluated the second submission of the
subject traffic impact analysis, (hardcopy received on June 7, 2016) and finds that the report conforms
to the requirements of Chapter 527 in regard to the accuracy of the methodologies, assumptions and
conclusions presented in the analysis. Summarized below are key findings and recommendations as
identified in the study as well as comments related to compliance with Access Management Regulation
standards.
Description
Proposed is a 105 acre mixed use commercial development located on a parcel bounded by
Route 288 to the east, Genito Road (Rt 604) to the south, Tredegar Lake Parkway to the
north and the Village at Waterford Development to the west. At full build out, the proposed
development will consist of 330 apartment units, 360 townhomes, 115,000 SF of retail,
50,000 SF of restaurants, 330,000 SF of commercial (business park) and a 40 -acre outdoor
adventure park.
• Interim site development is anticipated to be constructed and in use by 2020 with build -out
anticipated by 2023. The study identified land use phasing is as follows:
Ms. Peterson

Study Operational Analysis (LOS/Queue)
In accordance with the Ch. 527 guidelines evaluated were 2015 existing conditions, 2023
background and build -out conditions (with recommended improvements) and 2029 background
and build -out conditions (with recommended improvements). The study also includes an
interim analysis assuming a portion of the site will be built by 2020. Additionally provided are
2035 Horizon conditions to satisfy Chesterfield Department of Transportation requirements.
The Departments review/comments of the operational analysis do not include the 2035 Horizon
conditions.
Ms. Peterson

No -Build Background, 2015
• LOS - All study area intersections operate at an overall LOS of C, D or E during peak hours
with the northbound approach at the unsignalized intersection of Genito Road / Genito
Place / Kelly Green Parkway operating at LOS F.
• Queue - The study analysis indicated queues extending beyond the length of the storage
lanes under existing conditions with significant back-ups at the eastbound approach of
Charter Colony Parkway/ Powhite Parkway/ Old Hundred Road during the AM peak, the
northbound approach of the same intersection during the PM peak, the southbound
approach of the Charter Colony at Tredegar Lake Parkway and the southbound approach of
Charter Colony Parkway at Genito Road during the PM peak.
Interim. 2020 (interim phase development with proposed phased improvements)
This analysis was conducted to verify signal warrants at the Genito Road / Genito Place / Kelly
Green Drive intersection. Study findings support that the warrants would be met, assuming
interim build volumes as proposed and 25% build out of the remaining Village at Waterford Park
development.
• LOS - The studied intersections of existing Charter Colony / Tredegar Lake Parkway, Charter
Colony / Genito Road and Genito Road / Genito Place / Kelly Green Drive and the proposed
Genito Road right-in/right-out access operate at an LOS D or greater. No other intersections
were analyzed under this scenario.
• Queue—The study did not include a queuing analysis for the interim conditions.
No -Build, 2023 (future conditions without development or improvements)
• LOS - The overall intersection level of service at the Charter Colony Parkway / Tredegar Lake
Drive and Charter Colony / Genito Road intersections degrade from an LOS D under 2015
conditions to an LOS E in 2023. All other intersection LOS remains the same as under the
No -Build Background conditions.
• Queue -The study analysis indicated queues extending beyond the length of the storage
lanes with significant back-ups under the 2023 No -Build conditions at the same locations
cited under the 2015 No -Build Background conditions.
Build, 2023 (future conditions with build -out and proposed improvements)
• LOS - The intersection of Charter Colony Parkway / Powhite Parkway degrade to an LOS E
during the AM peak and LOS F during the PM peak from the 2023 no -build scenario. All
other intersections operate at an LOS D or better.
• Queue — Queues continue to extend beyond the length of the storage lanes at several
locations with significant back-ups anticipated at the eastbound approach of Charter Colony
Parkway / Powhite Parkway / Old Hundred Road during the AM peak and the northbound,
westbound and southbound approaches of the same intersection during the PM peak.
However, compared to 2023 No -Build conditions, the proposed improvements would
Ms. Peterson
July 12, 2016
Page 4 of 6
reduce queues along the southbound Charter Colony Parkway approach at Tredegar Lake
Parkway and Genito Road during the PM peak hour and along the northbound Kelly Green
Drive approach to Genito Road during the AM peak hour. .
No -Build 2029 future conditions without development or improvements)
• LOS - The intersections of Charter Colony Parkway with Powhite Parkway, Tredegar Lake
Parkway and Genito Road all operate at a LOS of D or worse during AM and PM peak hours.
All other intersections operate at an LOS D or better.
• Queue —The study analysis indicated queues extending beyond the length of the storage
lanes with significant back-ups under the 2029 No -Build conditions at the same locations
cited under the 2023 No -Build conditions.
Build, 2029 (future conditions_ with build -out and 2023 improvements)
• LOS - The intersection of Charter Colony Parkway / Powhite Parkway continues to operate at
an LOS E during the AM peak and LOS F during the PM peak, as during the 2023 Build
conditions. All other intersections continue to operate at an LOS D or better.
Queue —Queues continue to extend beyond the length of the storage lanes at several
locations with significant back-ups anticipated at the eastbound approach of Charter Colony
Parkway / Powhite Parkway / Old Hundred Road during the AM peak and the northbound,
westbound and southbound approaches of the same intersection during the PM peak.
However, compared to 2029 No -Build conditions, the proposed improvements would
reduce queues along the southbound Charter Colony Parkway approach at Tredegar Lake
Parkway and Genito Road during the PM peak hour and along the northbound Kelly Green
Drive approach to Genito Road during the AM peak hour.
Recommended Improvements
The following are improvements identified in the study, necessary to mitigate adverse impacts
of the proposed development.
Interim Phase
• Genito Road/ Genito Place/ Kelly Green Drive
■ Widening of Genito Place at Genito Road to provide three approach lanes at the
intersection (left only, shared through -left, right only)
■ Construction of traffic signal
• Tredegar Cake Parkway Extension
Extend the roadway from its current terminus at Waterford Lake Drive to Genito
Place.
Ms. Peterson
July 12, 2016
Page5of6
• Genito Road/New Right-In/Right-Out Driveway
■ Construct new access approximately 425' west of Genito Road / Genito Place / Kelly
Green Drive. Provide a right turn lane (100' taper/100' storage)
Build -Out Phase
In addition to the interim improvements, the following is proposed to be completed, prior to
build -out (2023).
• Genito Road/ Genito Place/ Kelly Green Drive
■ Construction of a second eastbound Genito Road left turn lane (250' storage)
• Genito Road/Charter Colony Parkway
■ Construction of a second westbound right turn lane along Genito Rd. (350' storage)
• Charter Colony Parkway at Tredegar Lake Parkway
■ Construction of a second southbound left turn lane along Charter Colony Parkway
(300' storage)
■ Modification of the eastbound approach to provide a left only, shared left / through
and right only lanes.
■ Modification of the westbound approach to provide a left only, shared left / through
and right only (200' storage) lanes.
■ Traffic signal modifications as necessary
The feasibility of constructing the noted recommended improvements has not been considered
as part of this study. Further evaluation is required to verify any constraints associated with
right-of-way acquisition, utility locations and/or other design considerations that may impact the
ability to construct.
Access Management
In addition to the Ch 527 findings noted above, the proposal was evaluated for compliance to the
spacing standards found in the Access Management Regulations 24 VAC 30-72 / 24VAC30-73.
Identified below are those findings.
• The location of the proposed new Genito Road right -in / right -out access and of the
proposed signal at the Genito Road / Genito Place / Kelly Green Parkway intersection
comply with Regulation spacing standards from other intersections/access points. No
further Department evaluation of an exception to the standards is necessary.
The purpose of the traffic impacts analysis report and the summary of findings can include assisting the
Planning Director, the Planning Commission and/or the Board of Supervisors in their decision-making
process regarding the proposed development. I am available at your convenience to meet with County
staff and/or Board/Commission members to discuss the findings and answer any questions. I'm also
Ms. Peterson
July 12, 2016

available upon request to present these recommendations at any public meeting on the above
referenced project.
Finally, I ask that you arrange to have VDOrs summary of the key findings of the traffic analysis included
in the official public records (meeting minutes, staff report) on the proposed project and to have this
letter and the traffic impact analysis placed in the case file for the site plan application. The Department
will also make these documents available to the general public.
Should you have questions, I can be reached at 804-674-2384.

Summary
EPA has released its 2012 recreational water
quality criteria (RWQC) recommendations for
protecting human health in all coastal and non -
coastal waters designated for primary contact
recreation use. EPA provides two sets of
recommended criteria. Primary contact
recreation is protected if either set of criteria
recommendations are adopted into state water
quality standards.
These recommendations are intended as
guidance to states, territories and authorized
tribes in developing water quality standards to
protect swimmers from exposure to water that
contains organisms that indicate the presence of
fecal contamination.
EPA last issued ambient water quality criteria
recommendations for recreational waters in
1986. EPA issues such recommendations under
the authority of the Clean Water Act (CWA).
Amendments to the CWA by the Beaches
Environmental Assessment and Coastal Health
(BEACH) Act of 2000 direct EPA to conduct
studies associated with pathogens and human
health, and to publish new or revised criteria
recommendations for pathogens and pathogen
indicators based on those studies. These 2012
RWQC meet those requirements.
The 2012 RWQC rely on the latest research and
science, including studies that show a link
between illness and fecal contamination in
recreational waters. They are based on the use of
two bacterial indicators of fecal contamination,
E. coli and enterococci. The new criteria are
designed to protect primary contact recreation,
including swimming, bathing, surfing, water
skiing, tubing, water play by children, and
similar water contact activities where a high
degree of bodily contact with the water,
immersion and ingestion are likely.
The 2012 RWQC offer two sets of numeric
concentration thresholds, either of which would
protect the designated use of primary contact
recreation and, therefore, would protect the
public from exposure to harmful levels of
pathogens. Illness rates upon which these
recommendations are based use the National
Epidemiological and Environmental Assessment
of Recreational Water (NEEAR) definition of
gastrointestinal illness, which is not limited to
illnesses which exhibit a fever.
The RWQC consist of three components:
magnitude, duration and frequency. The
magnitude of the bacterial indicators are
described by both a geometric mean (GM) and a
statistical threshold value (STV) for the bacteria
samples. The STV approximates the 90th
percentile of the water quality distribution and is
intended to be a value that should not be
exceeded by more than 10 percent of the
samples taken. The table summarizes the
magnitude component of the recommendations.
All three components are explained in more
detail in the sections below.

Water quality criteria recommendations are
intended as guidance in establishing new or
revised water quality standards. They are not
regulations themselves. States and authorized
tribes have the discretion to adopt, where
appropriate, other scientifically defensible water
quality criteria that differ from EPA's
recommended criteria.
Enterococci: Culturable enterococci at a
geometric mean (GM) of 35 colony forming
units (CFU per 100 milliliters (mL) and a
statistical threshold value (STV) of 130 cfu per
100 mL, measured using EPA Method 1600, or
any other equivalent method that measures
culturable enterococci.
E. coli: Culturable E. coli at a GM of 126 cfa
per 100 mL and an STV of 410 cfu per 100 mL
measured using EPA Method 1603, or any other
equivalent method that measures culturable E.
coli.

Enterococci: Culturable enterococci at a GM of

any other equivalent method that measures
culturable enterococci.
E. coli: Culturable E. coli at a GM of 100 cfu

Duration and Frequency: The waterbody GM
should not be greater than the selected GM
magnitude in any 30 -day interval. There should
not be greater than a ten percent excursion
frequency of the selected STV magnitude in the
same 30 -day interval.
Similar Protection for Fresh and Marine
Waters: The EPA used an analysis of NEEAR
water quality data to refine the illness rate
estimate for the recommended marine criterion
for entercocci. The 2012 RWQC values now
protect public health similarly in both marine
and fresh waters.
A New Measurement Value: EPA is
introducing a new term, Statistical Threshold
Value (STV), to be used in conjunction with the
recommended GM value.
New Early Alert Tool: In addition to
recommending criteria values, EPA is now also
providing states with Beach Action Values
(BAVs) for use in notification programs. The
BAV is provided for states to use as a
precautionary tool to provide an early alert to
beachgoers, including families with children.
A Single Level of Beach Use: The 1986
bacteria criteria document included four single
sample maximum (SSM) values appropriate for
different levels of beach usage (use intensities).
In the 2012 RWQC, EPA removed those
recommendations and instead provided states
with optional, precautionary BAVs for use in
monitoring and notification programs.
More Tools for Assessing and Managing
Recreational Waters: EPA is providing
information on tools for evaluating and
managing recreational waters, such as predictive
modeling and sanitary surveys. The Agency is
also providing tools for developing site-specific
criteria such as epidemiological studies,
quantitative microbial risk assessment, and use
of alternative indicators or methods. The EPA
has developed and validated a molecular testing
method using quantitative polymerase chain
reaction (gPCR) as a rapid analytical technique
for the detection of enterococci in recreational
water (EPA Method 1611). For the purposes of
beach monitoring, a state may use a gPCR
method on a site-specific basis.
