VT S0303

Requires the Agency of Natural Resources to conduct on-site visits of every parcel identified by GIS data as subject to the three-acre stormwater discharge permit to verify actual impervious surface measurements

Limits initial permit requirements to only the top 10 percent of parcels ranked by severity of water quality impact, with remaining parcels scheduled based on their impact severity rather than fixed deadlines

Excludes municipal and State roads from impervious surface calculations when determining whether private property meets the three-acre permit threshold

Clarifies that failure to obtain a three-acre stormwater permit does not create an encumbrance or cloud on property title, though sellers must disclose permit status to buyers at least 72 hours before contract execution

Mandates the Secretary of Natural Resources hold at least one public hearing in each county within 120 days to explain the permit program and changes made by the act
