    After eastern groundwater report detailed aquifer concerns, Va. lawmakers consider policy shifts

    A report from the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality indicated that groundwater availability east of Interstate-95 is declining, raising concerns about ground subsidence and saltwater intrusion. In response, lawmakers are considering policy changes, including allowing DEQ more discretion to deny water withdrawal permits. Potential solutions being discussed involve implementing the SWIFT water injection project, which injects treated wastewater back into the aquifer.
