    ARCHEOLOGICAL AND HISTORICAL DETERMINATION OF TRADITIONALLY NAVIGABLE WATERS IN NORTHERN VIRGINIA AND A COMPREHENSIVE METHODOLOGY FOR THE DETERMINATION OF THE TRADITIONAL NAVIGABILITY OF WATERWAYS IN THE UNITED STATES Goose Creek Canal, Loudoun County Virginia William P. Barse, Ph.D. and Boyd Sipe July 2007 5300 Wellington Branch Drive • Suite 100 • Gainesville, VA 20155 • Phone 703.679.5600 • Fax 703.679.5601 www.wetlandstudies.com A Division of Wetland Studies and Solutions, Inc. ABSTRACT This document presents the results of an archival and documentary study on the Traditional Navigability of Waterways in Northern Virginia. The study area is depicted in Attachment 1 of this report and is roughly bounded by the Potomac River on the north and east, the Opequon Creek watershed on the west and the Rappahannock River watershed on the south. The study was conducted by Thunderbird Archeology, a division of Wetland Studies and Solutions, Inc. of Gainesville, Virginia. The purposes of this work are threefold. The primary purpose is to assist consultants and regulators in completing Section III of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Approved Jurisdictional Form. In order to accomplish this goal, a working definition of what constitutes Traditional Navigable Waterways was prepared. This definition will aid in the determination of Waters of the United States jurisdiction for the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers within the study area. Secondly, using specific archeological and historical information, the paper demonstrates that certain rivers and streams can be identifiable as Traditional Navigable Waterways. It is also possible to consider the use of streams for recreation, e.g.

    Action Plan for the Northern Virginia Neabsco Creek Community College Bacteria TMDL (2018 - 2023 MS4 General Permit) Woodbridge Campus A Plan to Address NOVA’s Assigned Wasteload Allocation for the Woodbridge Campus Permit # VAR040095 Prepared: June 2015 Updated: April 2020 This document addresses Part II B, of the General Virginia Pollution Discharge Elimination System Permit for Discharges of Stormwater from Small Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System. This document serves as a specific Total Maximum Daily Load Action Plan to identify the best management practices and other interim milestone activities to be implemented to address the bacteria wasteload allocation assigned to NOVA’s regulated MS4 area in the “Bacteria TMDL for Neabsco Creek, EEE Consulting, Inc. Prince William County, Virginia,” approved by the Environmental Protection Agency on September 10, 2008. NOVA Action Plan for the Neabsco Creek Bacteria TMDL EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Northern Virginia Community College (NOVA), is authorized to discharge stormwater from its municipal separate storm sewer system (MS4) under the Virginia Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (VPDES) General Permit for Discharge of Stormwater from Small MS4s (MS4 General Permit). To maintain permit compliance, NOVA implements an MS4 Program Plan that includes best management practices (BMPs) to address six minimum control measures (MCMs) and special conditions for the Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDL) in which NOVA has been assigned a wasteload allocation (WLA). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) describes a TMDL as a “pollution diet” that identifies the maximum amount of a pollutant the waterway can receive and still meet water quality standards. A WLA determines the required reduction in pollutant of concern loadings from the MS4s to meet water quality standards.
