If violations of a plan or potentially hazardous situations are noted, they should be immediately
reported to the Owner. The RLD may be able to suggest economical ways to achieve desirable
corrections. In any case, it is wise to set a reasonable deadline for accomplishing necessary corrections.
Plan changes or cases of non-compliance (such as commencing land disturbance without an approved
plan) should be addressed with the Plan-Approving Authority and Program Authority as appropriate.
The common thread in any successful plan implementation is the need to reach timely solutions to
issues that arise on site prior to and during plan implementation. By becoming knowledgeable in the
Virginia ESC Program, developing a cooperative working relationship with on site parties, and exercising
common sense, the RLD can facilitate efficient and economical plan implementation.
