The following restrictions and limitations are recommended for approval of a permit to possess non-
native (exotic) species for research or aquaculture:
1. Facilities holding or rearing non-native (exotic) species which are within the one hundred (100)
1
year flood plain, referred to as Zone A on the National Flood Insurance Map
shall be enclosed
within an earthen or concrete dike or levee raised to an elevation of at least one foot above the
one hundred (100) year flood elevation. The dike should be constructed in such a manner to
exclude all flood waters. Dike construction must be approved by the Department.
2. Open pond culture will not be permitted. All non-native (exotic) species listed in Paragraph 3
shall only be kept in closed aquaculture systems which must be covered or in a building.
3. There shall be no continuous discharge of water.
a. There shall be no direct discharge from any facility to any watercourse.
b. Discharge must be according to one of the following:
i. The outfall shall pass over a dry ground percolation system in which ground absorption of
the water is sufficient. The outfall shall pass through a screened filter box which will
prevent fish and fish eggs from escapement prior to entering the percolation area.
ii. The outfall shall pass through a chlorination or other effective sterilization process and
retention tank for dechlorination. The outfall from the chlorination system shall be screened
to prevent escapement of eggs or fry. Such facilities must also comply with regulation of
the Department of Environmental Quality.
4 Accidental spillage or escapement of non-native (exotic) species from the facility must be
reported within 24 hours to the Department.
5. Non-natives or their hybrids (including eggs) may be obtained only from Virginia permitted
dealers or dealers properly permitted out of state and must be certified by the seller as to species
shipped, and having disease free status. Each purchase or acquisition of non-native species must
be accompanied by a receipt or other written evidence showing date of sale, source, species,
quantity of the acquisition and its destination. Such receipt must be in the possession of the
permittee, and a copy sent to the Department.
6. The facility shall not sell any live non-native (exotic) species (including eggs) to any person not
having a valid permit for purchasing such within the Commonwealth.
7. The permit authorizes agents of the Department to make periodic inspections of the facilities
and the stock of each operation. Every person engaged in the business of non-native (exotic)
species shall permit such inspection at any reasonable time.
8. Under no circumstances shall any non-native (exotic) species be released into the wild.
9. This permit does not absolve the permittee of any responsibilities or conditions of any other
