VOTE NO for HB1220.

We have been waiting for Virginia to clean up its storm water with vegetated buffers along all the rivers and tributaries since 1987. These forested buffers provide slowing down of the storm water run off, cleaning our air, water and land pollution through our trees.

Developers, corporations and government knew this was coming and we, the constituents, should no longer have to allow pollution into our water ways.

Do not delay what is desperately needed; DCRs plan to clean up our water.

Thank you for voting no and protecting our water quality.
