(1) https://law.lis.virginia.gov/vacode/54.1-402/ is a better link Note "preparing documentation pursuant to subsection C of ยง 54.1-402 <http://law.lis.virginia.gov/vacode/54.1-402/> shall note the following" So this disclaimer is necessary not for all maps, but only ones used in documentation intended for a specific purposes. So probably this disclaimer is not necessary on typical OSM based maps.
