Nancy K.

The four major watersheds in the City of Virginia Beach: Northern Portion: Chesapeake Bay Watershed Southern Portion: Owl Creek North Landing River (Northwest River - Sub Watershed) Back Bay In October 1991, the City Council ADOPTED a Resolution to Study the City's Southern Watersheds and to investigate local regulations for Water Quality Protection. With the exception of Owl Creek/Rudee Inlet, the Southern Watersheds differ from the Chesapeake Bay Watershed. They have flatter topography. Waterways typically have a natural buffer of swamp or marsh. Mr. Cullipher reiterated: HISTORICAL EVENTS AND PROBABLE IMPACTS ON BACK BAY/NORTH LANDING RIVER WATERSHEDS: 1830 Currituck Inlet at the VA-NC Line closed during a Storm 1890 The Causeway to Knotts Island was constructed 1930's Sand Fences were constructed along Barrier Spit south of Sandbridge 1930-PRESENT Fringe Marshes and Tslands have been eroding 1932 Locks were constructed at Great Bridge 1950-60 Open Bridge Drainage Systems were constructed. Extensive dredging and filling of valuable wetlands for building sites. 1960-Present Increased development Late 1970's Demise of Submerged Aquatic Vegetation (SAV) 1984 imann Report Suggested Disease Sincock USFWS attributed the Decline to "Unusual Weather Conditions" which contributed to water turbidity and turbulence. 1980's Construction of Salem and West Neck Canals - 3 - C IT Y MANA GE R ' S B R I E F IN G SOUTHERN WATERSHEDS BACK BAY WATERSHED ITEM # 34639 (Continued) Water Quality Data collected by several agencies/organizations Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries Virginia Water Control Board US Fish Wildlife Service Jason M. Cortell & Associates Back Bay Restoration Foundation The parameters used for sampling have not been the same. Dr. Raymond Alden, ODU, conducted statistical analysis report. General Findings: Most Reports state that nutrients, nitrogen and phosphorous are elevated particularly in proximity to tributary creeks. All reports indicate that turbidity or suspended sediments in the water column is a serious problem. Most researchers indicated that it is difficult to differentiate non-point source pollution being generated from fertilizer, animal waste or urban development. As land use changes from agriculture to urban development there is potential for water quality degradation unless increased water quality protection measures are taken. NORTH LANDING RTVER WATERSHED Topography is similar to Back Bay except channel and floodplain is more clearly defined. Less impacted by wind-driven Tides. Data from four monitoring stations on North Landing River and West Neck Creek indicated: Elevated Levels of Nitrogen and Phosphorous Level of Manganese High at Three Stations Level of Tron High at One Station Dissolved Oxygen, Ph, Temperature and Bacteria Standards Generally good. Land use changes in accordance with the 1991 Comprehensive Plan will likely result in increased runoff with potential for water quality degradation. According to Stormwater Management Plan, Wet Pond Detention BMP's do not provide 100% removal efficiencies for various pollutant loads. North Landing River is part of the Intercoastal Waterway system. The relatively high boat traffic results in potential pollution associated with recreational and commercial boating. - 4 - C IT Y MANA GE R ' S B R I E F IN G SOUTHERN WATERSHEDS ITEM # 34639 (Continued) BACK BAY/NORTH LKNDING RIVER RECOMMENDATIONS Explore Innovative Agricultural (BMP's) Mechanical Devices on Drainages Ditches/Canals to Create Sheet Flow through Natural Buffers Sediment Basins Plants and Mechanical Structures to Stabilize Ditch Banks Explore legal concerns, drainage laws, ownership to implement practices State-of-The-Art Management for Animal Waste Water Table Mangement Identify and work with landowners to stabilize any eroding land adjacent tO Streams. Evaluate existing regulations to determine if they are adequate Network with all Federal and State agencies. Determine threshold level when it is appropriate for urban BMP's to replace Agricultural BMP'S. Explore using swales where appropriate rather than curb and gutter. Promote Federal/State cost-sharing programs to assist landowners/operators Explore Conservation Easement Program on a Voluntary Basis. Implement Adopt-A-Shoreline Program Implement portions of 1990 Farm Bill that ill result in water quality improvement. Foster organization, such as Nature Conservancy, to acquire environmentally sensitive areas. Explore innovative ways to minimize impacts of boat wakes. Support State scenic waterway status. OWL CREEK/RUDEE INLET WATERSHED Conditions are unlike Back Bay and North Landing River, but similar to the Chesapeake Bay Watershed The shoreline is highly to moderately developed to support numerous marinas, boat ramps and private boat slips located in the inlet. No significant agricultural enterprise Virginia Water Control Board does not maintain water quality monitoring stations in the Watershed. Bacteriological monitoring undertaken by the State Bureau of Shellfish Sanitation. Shellfish condemnation is in effect. Report indicates elevated levels of fecal coliform are due almost entirely to the boat pollution associated with marinas, boat ramps, and private boat slips. Urban runoff also contributes - 5 - C IT Y MANA GE R ' S B R I E F IN G SOUTHERN WATERSHEDS ITEM # 34639 (Continued) OWL CREEK/RUDEE INLET WATERSHED RECOMMENDATIONS Explore developing Memorandum of Understanding with Navy on Owl Creek Property Explore benefits/cost of creating Conservation Districts, similar to City's Chesapeake Bay Preservation Area Program.

The interest exists by reason of one of five categories specified therein as: 1) ownership in a business if the ownership interest exceeds 3% of the total equity of the business; (2) annual income from ownership in real or personal property or a business in excess of $10,000.00; 3) salary ftom the use of property or paid by a business that exceeds $10,000.00annually; 4) ownership of real or personal property when the interest exceeds $10,000.00in value, Councilman John A. Baum -3- July 9, 1991 exclusive of ownership in a business, or salary; and 5) personal liability incurred or assumed on behalf of a business which exceeds 3% of the asset value of the business. E. A "personal interest in the transaction" exists when an officer or employee or a member of his immediate family has a personal interest in property or a business or represents any individual or business and such property, business or represented individual (i) is the subject of the transaction or (ii) may realize a reasonably foreseeable direct or indirect benefit or detriment as the result of the agency considering the transaction. 11. A lication of Definitions A. Personal Interest You have a personal interest with respect to your farming business by virtue of annual income from the business which exceeds $10,000-00. YOu have indicated, however, that you do not have any interest in Frank T. Williams Farms or in the property that is the subject of the variance and conditional use permit applications. Therefore, you do not have a personal interest with respect to the applications. B. I Based on the facts presented, you have a "personal interest" in your farming business, however, your farming business is not the subject of the transactions, nor will it realize a reasonably foreseeable direct or indirect benefit or detriment based on the subject variance and conditional use permit applications. Therefore, it is my opinion that you do not have a personal interest in the transactions within the meaning of the Conflict of Interests Act. 111. Disclosure Requirements Based on the fact that you have no personal interest in Frank T. Williams Farms nor in the variance and conditional use permit applications of Frank T. Williams, you are not restricted in voting as to these items. If you are concerned that your participation as to these matters may create some appearance of impropriety because of your position, there are two options available to you which may diffuse any perception problems that may arise: 1. You may either disclose the facts as presented herein and proceed to vote as to these transactions; or Councilman John A. Baum -4- July 9, 1991 2. You may abstain from voting and disclose any interest. Should you decide to declare your interest and vote, a proposed disclosure letter which complies with SS 2.1-639.14(G) is enclo@ for your convenience. You may either make this declaration orally, which is to be recorded in the written minutes of the City Council, or you may file a signed written declaration with the Clerk of the City Council, who shall retain and make this document available for public inspection for a period of five years from the date of recording or receipt. The Conflict of Interests Act de-als with the types of influences upon a public officer'sjudgment which are clearly improper. The law does not, however, protect against all appearance of improper influence. In that respect, the Act places the burden on the individual officer to evaluate whether the facts presented create an appearance of impropriety which is unacceptable or which would affect the confidence of the public in the officer's ability to be impartial. I have opined that you may participate in the transaction after disclosure. However, if you are concemed that participating in the transaction, even after disclosure, could cteate an unacceptable appearance, you may abstain from voting under SS 2.1-639.14(E) provided that you first disclose your interest in the transaction. As a final note to any conflict of interests opinion, Section 2.1-639. 1 g(c) provides that a written opinion of the made after a full disclosure of the facts, is advisory and admissable as evidence that the local officer did not knowingly violate the Act, while a favorable opinion of the ommonwealth's Attorne as the enforcing officer of the COIA, provides immunity from any alleged violation.
