Responsible Land Disturbing (RLD) Program Information

The Responsible Land Disturber Certificate of Competence Program was established as a component of the Virginia Erosion and Sediment Control (ESC) Program by revisions to the Virginia Erosion and Sediment Control Law (Title 10.1, Chapter 5, Article 4 of the Code of Virginia). The program is effective July 1, 2001. A memo, FAQ sheet and text of the revisions are available for download from the Department of Conservation and Recreation website: RLD Info.
