Website Renovation Update

September 22, 2025

DEQ Website Navigation Changes

DEQ’s website navigation has now changed.

In addition to the redesigned homepage that was launched in August and enhanced search and translation tools, DEQ’s website navigation has been updated based on feedback from more than 1,000 website visitors.

To help with this transition, nearly 400 “redirects” are in place to help you find updated content by seamlessly taking you from an outdated bookmark or link to the corresponding new URL. These redirects will remain active for one year, so please update any bookmarks you’ve saved to any deq.virginia.gov webpages. You can save a bookmark with control + D on Chrome and Edge. An old-to-new URL crosswalk is also posted on our Website Renovation webpage.

We sincerely thank you for your assistance and patience with all of these changes. We will continue to share updates on future enhancements. In the meantime, please reach out to us at communications@deq.virginia.gov or (804)698-4000 if you have questions, ideas, or need assistance with the new navigation.
