4VAC15-35-40: Activities occurring before adoption of sector-specific plan

No permit shall be necessary for any regulated activity that is actively under construction, has received all necessary permits and approvals but construction has not commenced or that has provided evidence of other contractual obligations that may be described in the appropriate sector-specific plan on or before the effective date of a sector-specific plan that would otherwise apply to that regulated activity. Upon request, the department may review the circumstances of a project and provide a letter stating that no permit is necessary to any person conducting such an activity.
