Natural Features of Your Property

Information about important natural features of your property is available from several Loudoun County government agencies.

Soils, Drainage, Floodplain & Wetlands

• The Natural Resources Team within the Department of Building and Development has information about the surface and subsurface soil and rock characteristics and properties present on a specific parcel, and whether those features will cause any problems for the intended use. 
• Information such as depth to rock, wetness, natural drainage, drainfield potential or vineyard potential, karst land formations (limestone) and shrink-swell clays is available.
• The county can provide site-specific information and interpretation of soils, existing landscape features and associated problems. 
• We can also provide information regarding structural stability and mitigation of soil/geologic-related problems as well as groundwater availability and surface and groundwater monitoring.

Maps & Data

• Maps and data about property, floodplains, soils, topography, zoning, streets, addresses and other topics, including aerial photography, are available from the Loudoun County Office of Mapping and Geographic Information.
