Clean Water Virginia Legislative Priorities 2023
Clean Water Action is working with our allies to successfully help protect the Chesapeake Bay, open space, farmland, and historic sites before state senate and house elections in the fall. In addition to focusing on ensuring green infrastructure funding and reducing plastic pollution, here are some of the organization’s top priorities: Stormwater Local Assistance Fund (SLAF), Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI), and Reducing Plastic Pollution.
Rail & Transit in Virginia
Car-dependent sprawl development is inefficient and more costly to taxpayers, and has led to longer commutes that negatively impact our health and historic, cultural, and natural resources.
Coal Ash Ponds
Coal ash is the waste product generated when coal is burned for energy.
Toxic Chemicals in Waterways
PFAS chemicals are a class of chemicals used to make products grease proof, water-proof, stick-proof, and stain-resistant.
Reducing Stormwater
Stormwater is the polluted runoff gathered from rain, severe thunderstorms, and even snow from roads, parking lots, and other impervious surfaces, where runoff collects pollutants and carries them downstream, ultimately into the Chesapeake Bay.
