Board endorses DEQ land‑use suitability form for Industrial Coil Supply in Bluefield Industrial Park

Tazewell County supervisors voted to approve execution of a Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) Land Use Suitability and Value Form for Industrial Coil Supply, which is relocating into Bluefield Industrial Park.

A board member introduced Matthew Whitaker as the company representative and asked the board to endorse the DEQ form. The County Administrator explained the form certifies the county’s view that the facility’s location and operation are suitable, and noted that the county has no ordinance that would prohibit the company’s proposed industrial use.

"The board doesn't have any objections to this. We don't have any ordinance that would prohibit it," the County Administrator said during the discussion, and members asked technical questions about byproducts and wastewater handling. The company representative (introduced to the board) described operations as mostly in‑house and said there would be no on‑site dumping or storage of refuse.

A supervisor motioned to approve the form for Industrial Coil Supply in Bluefield Industrial Park; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.

Board members emphasized that if the company’s operations change from the current permitting posture they should notify county staff so the board can reassess local permitting or compliance needs. No member raised a formal zoning objection during the recorded discussion.

The board did not record roll‑call vote tallies in the transcript; the clerk recorded the motion as passing.
