§ 62.1-253 Riparian rights
Nothing in this chapter shall be construed as altering, or authorizing any alteration of, any existing riparian rights except as set forth in permits issued pursuant to this chapter. The conditions in such permits shall be in force only in those times when low stream flows, or the potential therefor, result in a declaration as provided for in subsection A of § 62.1-249.
History
This law was first created in 1989. The record of its establishment is cataloged in chapter 721 of that year’s edition of “Acts of Assembly,” the annual state publication listing all changes made to the Code of Virginia in that year. Unfortunately, the 1989 “Acts” aren’t available online.
