Water in the 2024 Virginia General Assembly

Abstract

In the tables below (starting on page 2), the Virginia Water Resources Research Center lists 151 measures in the 2024 Assembly dealing with water resources. The bills may affect water directly, such as bills on fishery management, water and sewer systems, or water quality standards; or indirectly by dealing with land uses, energy uses, or energy production, all of which can affect aquatic habitat, water use, water pollution, or climate-change impacts. The list also includes the Budget Bills, which have major effects on water through funding of water-related agencies, as well as occasionally through policy statements approved during the budget process.
